America in God's World: Theology, Ethics, and the Crises of Bases Abroad, Bad Money, and Black Gold

By Kenneth L. Vaux and Rosemary Radford Ruether

America in God's World argues that human injustice in social-policy areas such as security, economy, and ecology can be traced to defective theology/ethics abroad in the land. Renewing biblical theology and ethics, and finding new ways to appropriate this wisdom into public policy, can bring renewal to our national life and help heal and reconcile our troubled world.
