Theology and the Globalized Present: Feasting in the Future of God (Dispatches)

Theology and the Globalized Present focuses on the worlds future in God and Gods creativeness. In response to a globalized economy that reconfigures time to the detriment of human flourishing McDowell presents a re-imagined theological vision of eschatological memory and Eucharistic performance. This entails not so much a dreaming of a different world as a dreaming of this world differently. The theological materials offer a temporality that is hope-generating critically attentive to the inequitable character of features of our world and educative of ethical wisdom in a self-regulating and emancipatory witness of remembering and anticipating the transformative presence of God.
