13 Preface In 1972 I was a graduate student in the doctoral program at Syracuse University, accustomed to spending a week or two at Mount Saviour Monastery in Elmira New York during the summer. From my first encounter with these Benedictine monks they taught me the profound meaning of hospitality. It was there, under the spiritual guidance of Father Alexander, that I was first introduced to zazen Buddhist meditation as a form of spiritual practice a Christian might profitably engage in. The monastic custom is to have spiritual reading done aloud by one of the monks while the rest take their meals. During my visit that summer the spiritual reading was from a newly published book, The Way of All the Earth, by John S. Dunne of Notre Dame University. I was stunned, overwhelmed, and entranced by this book and immediately went out and bought a copy upon returning to Syracuse. Its thesis, that a new way of being religious was emerging in an age of globalization, one that he described as passing over and coming back, became for me the organizing insight of my own life s work, including this volume. So I gratefully dedicate this book to John S. Dunne and the monks of Mount Saviour. Without their influence it would never have been written. It is also dedicated to the memory of the man I worked for and with at that time, Dr. John H. McCombe, then Dean of Hendricks Chapel at Syracuse University. He is for me a model of the very practice of passing over that Dunne advocates. It is hard for me to believe the first edition of Comparative Religious Ethics: A Narrative Approach was published a full decade ago in Despite being a textbook, this book really functions as the third part of a four volume series on religion and global ethics that I undertook. The first volume, Narrative Theology after Auschwitz: From Alienation to Ethics, appeared almost two decades ago (in 1992) and was followed by The Ethical Challenge of Auschwitz and Hiroshima a
14 xii PREFACE year later. The core themes of those two volumes are presented in the second chapter of Comparative Religious Ethics: A Narrative Approach. This book extends the argument of the 1993 book that global public policy ethics requires a critique of the narrative imagination. Comparative Religious Ethics shows how this type of critique emerged in the last half of the 20th century in the global dialogue between figures like Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Thich Nhat Hanh, and the others presented in this book. Along the way, in The Coming of the Millennium (1996), I explored how a Christian ethic of hospitality to the stranger participates in this global dialogue and global experiment. This second edition of Comparative Religious Ethics: A Narrative Approach to Global Ethics seeks to fill in some of the missing elements of the first edition, especially the inclusion of a chapter on philosophical ethics from Socrates to Kant s ethic of global hospitality; the inclusion of a section on Chinese religions (Daoism and Confucianism) and their influence on Thich Nhat Hanh s Zen Buddhism in Chapter 6, and an expanded treatment of global ethics and the inclusion of a model of The Social Ecology of Justice to complement the Social Ecology of Conscience in the final chapter. I am especially pleased to have shared the authorship tasks of Comparative Religious Ethics with two of my former students, Dell dechant and David Lantigua. Both studied with me at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Dell co-authored the first edition with me and now David has joined us for this second edition. Dell is now Associate Chair of Religious Studies at the University of South Florida in Tampa and an accomplished author in his own right; David is a doctoral candidate at Notre Dame whom I can guarantee will soon be making significant contributions as an author. They have made this a multigenerational project that we all hope will reach a multigenerational readership. Darrell J. Fasching University of South Florida, Tampa
