| Summary |
Peter Scott contends that current ecological problems must be addressed within theology. Drawing insights from deep ecology, ecofeminism, and social and socialist ecologies, he proposes a common realm of God, nature and humanity, offering a theological rationale for an ecological democracy, founded on the ecological renewal secured by Christ's resurrection. |
