Reviewed by Peter Brock (Professor Emeritus of History, University of Toronto)Published on H- Peace (March, 2004) Dilemmas of a Perfectionist Dilemmas of a Perfectionist Thomas Curran's monograph originated in a Ph.D. dissertation at the University of Notre Dame but it has been much revised since. The book's clearly written and well-constructed narrative revolves around the person of an obscure package woolen commission merchant from Philadelphia named Alfred Henry Love (1830-1913), a radical pacifist activist who was also a Quaker in all but formal membership. Love is the key figure in the book, binding Curran's chapters together into a cohesive whole. And Love's papers, and particularly his unpublished "Journal," which are located at the Swarthmore College Peace Collection, form the author's most important primary source: in fact, he uses no other manuscript collections, although, as the endnotes and bibliography show, he is well read in the published primary and secondary materials, including work on the general background of both the Civil War era and nineteenth-century pacifism. Curran has indeed rescued Love himself from near oblivion; there is little else on him apart from an unpublished Ph.D. dissertation by Robert W. Doherty (University of Pennsylvania, 1962).

  • Jewish Dimensions of a Free Church Ecclesiology: a Community of Contrast
    Jewish Dimensions of a Free Church Ecclesiology: A Community of Contrast A research proposal by drs. Daniël Drost, April 2012 Supervised by Prof. Fernando Enns (promoter). Professor of Mennonite (Peace-) Theology and Ethics, Faculteit der Godgeleerdheid, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Director of the Institute for Peace Church Theology, Hamburg University. Dr. Henk Bakker. Universitair docent Theologie en Geschiedenis van het Baptisme, Faculteit der Godgeleerdheid, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Prof. Peter Tomson (extern). Professor of New Testament, Jewish Studies, and Patristics, Faculteit voor Protestantse Godgeleerdheid Brussel. The provisional title (and subtitle) of the dissertation Jewish Dimensions of a Free Church Ecclesiology: A Community of Contrast A brief description of the issue which the research project will investigate The research will start by investigating John Howard Yoder’s perspective on what he provocatively calls the ‘Jewishness of the Free Church Vision.’ Strongly recommended by Stanley Hauerwas (Duke University), Michael Cartwright (Dean of Ecumenical and Interfaith Programs at the University of Indianapoils) and Peter Ochs (Modern Judaistic Studies at the University of Virginia) posthumously edited and commented on Yoder’s lectures, which he had presented at the Roman- Catholic University of Notre Dame (The Jewish Christian Schism Revisited, 2003). Mennonite theologian Yoder does a firm attempt to relate an Anabaptist (Free Church) ecclesiology to Judaism. Within the tradition of the free churches (independence from government, congregational structure, voluntary membership, emphasis on individual commitment etc.) we can identify characteristics of a self-understanding and an aspired relation to the larger society, which can also be traced in the story of the People of Israel, the Hebrew Bible, Second Temple and rabbinic Diaspora Judaism – Yoder claims.

  • Just the Police Function, Then a Response to “The Gospel Or a Glock?”
    Just the Police Function, Then A Response to “The Gospel or a Glock?” Gerald W. Schlabach Introduction Consider this thought experiment: Adam and Eve have not yet sinned. In fact, they will not sin for a few decades and have begun their family. It is time for supper, but little Cain and his brother Abel are distracted. They bear no ill will, but their favorite pets, the lion and lamb, are particularly cute as they frolic together this afternoon. So Adam goes to find and hurry them home. With nary an unkind word and certainly no violence, he polices their behavior and orders their community life. For like every social arrangement, even this still-altogether-faithful community requires the police function too. A pacifist who does not recognize this point is likely to misconstrue everything I have written about “just policing.”1 Having lived a vocation for mediating between polarized Christian communities since my years in war- torn Central America, I expected a measure of misunderstanding when I proposed the agenda of just policing as a way to move ecumenical dialogue forward between pacifist and just war Christians, especially Mennonites and Catholics. Whoever seeks to engage the estranged in conversation simultaneously on multiple fronts will take such a risk.2 Deeply held identities are often at stake, and as much as the mediator may do to respect community boundaries, he or she can hardly help but threaten them simply by crossing back and forth. The risk of misunderstanding comes with the liminal territory, and nothing but a doggedly hopeful patience for continued conversation will minimize it.

  • Meeting in Exile
    Meeting In Exile Gerald W. Schlabach Gerald W. Schlabach is associate professor of theology at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota, and director of the university's Justice and Peace Studies Program. He is lead author and editor of Just Policing, Not War: An Alternative Response to World Violence (Liturgical Press, 2007) and co-editor of At Peace and Unafraid: Public Order, Security and the Wisdom of the Cross (Herald Press, 2007). From 2001 through 2007 he was executive director of Bridgefolk, a movement for grassroots dialogue and unity between Mennonites and Roman Catholics. For the three “historic peace church” colleges of Indiana to join together in the Plowshares Peace Studies Collaborative and its new Journal of Religion, Conflict, and Peace is altogether welcome and obviously fitting. The term “historic peace church” that links the Mennonite Church, the Religious Society of Friends, and the Church of the Brethren is, however, somewhat less obvious. Or rather, it has come to seem obvious mainly by historical accident, and then by force of habit. If the term had emerged in a context other than the United States in the years leading up to World War II, after all, other historic Christian communities might have been included, so, too, if the term ever undergoes revision in the twenty-first century. Just what constitutes a “peace church” in the first place? The question is deceptively simple. So let me begin by complicating it! A brief story may illuminate the complexity. In 1998 the first formal international ecumenical dialogue began between Mennonites and Roman Catholics.

  • Pursuing the Global Common Good
    pursuing the common good Principle and Practice in U.S. Foreign Policy Edited by Sally Steenland, Peter Rundlet, Michael H. Fuchs & David Buckley AP Photo 72 A Faithful Case for Intervention Our Common Responsibility to Protect Humanity and Prevent Atrocities Dr. Elizabeth G. Ferris eople of faith struggle every day with the question of how to translate their spiritual values Pinto concrete and appropriate responses to people whose lives are unprotected or endangered by their own government. Th is responsibility—to protect fellow citizens of the world who face death and mistreatment by tyrants who hide behind national sovereignty, and to prevent such situations from occurring—has been under intense debate since the formation of the modern nation-state. Since the end of the Cold War, however, a more sweeping understanding has developed of how people of faith should act for the global common good in the face of civil confl icts and tyranny rooted in nation-states. One striking example of this is the interfaith advocacy being carried out through the Save Darfur Coalition (see box below). Th e Darfur Campaign’s Faith Interventionists Th e campaign to end genocide in Darfur includes the American Jewish World Service (which founded the Save Darfur Coalition in 2004), the American Society for Muslim Advancement, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, and the National Association of Evangelicals. Th e coalition’s national members include the American Islamic Congress, the Buddhist Peace Fellowship, the Congress of Secular Jewish Organizations, and the National Black Church Initiative. Independent of the coalition, many faith-based organizations, such as Church World Service, Islamic Relief, Evangelicals for Darfur, the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee, and Catholic Relief Services are taking great risks to respond to the victims of the violence in Darfur.

The current debate within nonviolence studies is between principled and strategic nonviolence as relevant categories for theorizing nonviolent resistance. Principled nonviolence, while retaining the primacy of ethics, is often not practical.
