Global Civilization

Transportation telecommunications and the internet are all part of a process of globalisation that affects every sphere of life. This new phase in human evolution is central to the thinking of Leonardo Boff - one of the founders of Liberation Theology. In 'Global Civilisation' Boff presents a philosophical and theological enquiry into all aspects of globalization - from market forces to politics military force technology and science communication and spirituality. The book describes the revolution taking place - in consciousness the meaning of life holiness the economy politics culture work standards and ethics. Boff explores the contribution of Christianity to the new global civilisation and presents a utopian future for humankind.
