Theology in the Public Square: Church, Academy, and Nation

D'Costa, Gavin

This imaginative study rethinks the nature of theology and its role in universities.

• The author sketches out a fascinating project using examples from US and UK institutions, whereby theology becomes a transformative force within universities.
• Imagines what a Christian university, in which all disciplines have been theologized, would look like.
• Feeds into discussions about the religious identity of denominationally-linked colleges and universities.
• Forms part of a wider attempt to imagine a vital public role for theology that enables it to serve both the Church and the wider community.
