Theology in a Social Context by Robin Gill PDF Summary

Book Description: Over the last thirty years a number of theologians have been using aspects of sociology alongside the more traditional resources of philosophy. In turn, sociologists with an interest in theology have also contributed to an interaction between theology and sociology. John Milbank dismissed the sociology of religion as a radically secularising discipline and championed an approach to theology now known as radical orthodoxy, yet a decade later radical orthodoxy has lost a good deal of its support, with critics arguing that it is too circular and enclosed within its own premises. The time is now right to revisit the dialogue between theologians and sociologists prior to Milbank's intervention. In this new triology on Sociological Theology, Robin Gill makes a renewed contribution to mapping of three abiding ways of appropriately relating theology and interactionist sociology, namely: the social context of theology; the social determinants of theology; and the social significance of theology.
