    No full text
    For close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB).

This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

    Rural youth: Mobilities, marginalities, and negotiations

    No full text
    This chapter surveys three interconnected conceptual themes in the scholarly literature from the latter part of the twentieth century to the present concerned with the geographies of rural youth, namely, mobilities, marginalities, and negotiations (e.g., around gendered and sexual identities). Importantly, this literature demonstrates and engages with the diversity and heterogeneity of rural youth. As such it offers much needed attention to meaningful dialogue with young people, foregrounding their perspectives and views as opposed to the imposition of categories such as “socially excluded” rural youth
