Architecture, Theology, and Ethics: Making Architectural Design More Just 建筑、神学与伦理学：让建筑设计更加公正

建筑、神学和伦理学：让建筑设计更公正认为，建筑、设计和创造力是神学伦理问题，致力于社会和环境正义的基督徒应该更深入地考虑这些问题。Elise M.Edwards讨论了建筑设计的意义，进入了神学伦理学和美学的持续对话。她认为，建筑设计不仅仅是富裕客户的专业实践，而是日常人们在做出塑造他们居住空间的选择时所进行的一项活动。如果基督徒从神学角度思考他们在这些决定中的作用，他们会发现建筑设计成了一个为人类和上帝创造繁荣做出贡献的机会。Edwards提出了一种建筑设计方法，将其呈现为具有塑造我们世界的力量的预言性行动。然后，本书提出了五个道德承诺，指导设计意图和设计过程走向公正和包容。基于自由主义、女权主义和女性主义思想，《建筑、神学和伦理学》为建筑与基督教伦理和神学的相关性提供了令人信服的理由。
Architecture, Theology, and Ethics: Making Architectural Design More Just argues that architecture, design, and creativity are theological-ethical concerns that ought to be considered more deeply by Christians who are committed to social and environmental justice. Elise M. Edwards discusses the significance of architectural design, entering into ongoing conversations in theological ethics and aesthetics. She argues that architectural design is not just a professional practice for wealthy clients, but rather an activity that everyday people undertake when making choices that shape the spaces they inhabit. If Christians think theologically about their agency in these decisions, they will discover that architectural design becomes an opportunity to contribute to the flourishing for humanity and God’s creation. Edwards proposes an approach to architectural design that presents it as prophetic action with the power to shape our world. This book then presents five moral commitments that guide design intentions and the process of design towards justice and inclusion. Grounded in liberationist, feminist, and womanist thought, Architecture, Theology, and Ethics makes a compelling case for architecture’s relevance to Christian ethics and theology.
