Description

On Value and Valuing - Each year the Summer Graduate Seminar explores a theme of broad cross-disciplinary significance. This year we will consider how value is discerned, created, and maintained through social, economic, and theological structures. Themes include imago Dei, sacredness, work, consumption/consumerism, Marxist theory, the commodification of religion, and the valuing force of ritual & architecture. The course will treat three cases in detail: how social and political values drive immigration policy, how human value is theologized, and how Jesus's ministry intersected with economic & cultic values. Throughout the course we will emphasize contemporary implications and contextualization.
