[2], 30 p.; 20 cm. (Church Peace Mission pamphlet ; no. 5) Contents: I The social ethics of Karl Barth in his political involvement and his occasional essays: Barmen, justification and justice, writings during World War II, the two communities, the bomb and the Bruderschaften, comparison with classical doctrine -- II Ethics derived from christology within the dogmatic work of Karl Barth: war in Church Dogmatics, Jesus Christ the royal man -- III Remaining questions: external questions, internal questions. -- `He recognizes that the Church is herself a social body, so that the duality of individual versus corporate morality is not applicable; and he recognizes realistically that in speaking to the civil community he cannot presuppose faith in Christ on the part of those to whom his witness is addressed. One further step: Barth does not ask only, as in 1938, by what right it is possible to speak to the State. He also in concerned about what it is possible to say. He discovers that the criteria of the freedom of religious exercise, the refusal of deification of the State, and necessary opposition to the anti-State, are not sufficient. The bridge would have been easy to build, had Barth been willing to call upon natural theology, which discerns in the spirit of every man certain common understandings, independent both of the subjective faith of the individual and of his objective knowledge of Jesus Christ. This bridge Barth must reject in the name of the Christological concentration which dominates his entire work. In the place of this bridge he proposes a method of "analogy." . The author proposes a dozen examples.' (p. 9 f.) VG, stapled, in orig. green on ivory wrapper.
