Is a Messianic Political Ethic Possible? Recent Work by and about John Howard Yoder. [REVIEW]P. Travis Kroeker - 2005 - Journal of Religious Ethics 33 (1):139 - 174.details In his landmark monograph, "The Politics of Jesus", John Howard Yoder challenged mainstream Christian social ethics by arguing that the New Testament account of Jesus's founding of a messianic community entails a normative politics, not only for early Christianity but for the contemporary church. This challenge is further elaborated in several important posthumous publications, especially "Preface to Theology", in which Yoder examines the development of early Christology with attention to its political and ethical implications, and "The Jewish-Christian Schism Revisited", Yoder's (...)

The politics of yhwh: John Howard Yoder's old testament narration and its implications for social ethics.John C. Nugent - 2011 - Journal of Religious Ethics 39 (1):71-99.details The apparent tension between the moral codes of the Old and New Testaments constitutes a perennial problem for Christian ethics.

The Christian difference: Surviving postmodernism.Stanley Hauerwas - 1999 - Cultural Values 3 (2):164-181.details Drawing on the work of Nicholas Boyle, this paper argues that postmodernism represents the intellectual style we should expect as part of developing global capitalist regimes. Accordingly, I argue that postmodernism is not a friend but an enemy to Christianity just to the extent the former tempts us to lose our history. In that respect, the challenge of postmodernism is no different than the challenge of modernity. It becomes the Christian task now to narrate modernity and postmodernity on our own (...)
