Zusammenfassung

Sex and Gender: Christian Ethical Reflections contains some of the subject's most important analyses in recent decades. The collection covers a wide range of topics: same-sex marriage, sexual minorities and biblical interpretation, sex and power, sexual harassment and sexual abuse, HIV/AIDS and prevention strategy, the military and masculinities, mobile porn and sexting, human trafficking, moral discernment, and more. Contributors represent various theological traditions and draw on scriptural texts as well as such disciplines as philosophy, sociology, psychology, and the life sciences. Each essay is followed by a set of discussion questions-for the classroom or for students to use as an assignment outline-and suggestions for further reading and research. Teachers and students of Christian ethics will appreciate this multidisciplinary approach to one of the most divisive and controversial issues in contemporary culture.

Mary Jo Iozzio is professor and director of the Master of Theological Studies Program at Boston College. She is the author of Calling for Justice Throughout the World: Catholic Women Theologians on the HIV/AIDS Pandemic and Self-Determination and the Moral Act.

Patricia Beattie Jung is visiting professor of Christian ethics, Saint Paul School of Theology, and the author of Sex on Earth as it is in Heaven and Hetrosexism: An Ethical Challenge.
