Values in a Time of Upheaval - Meeting the Challenges of the Future

In the worldwide best seller Values in a Time of Upheaval, Joseph Ratzinger (now Pope Benedict XVI) passionately defends the role traditional Judeo-Christian values should play in a pluralistic society and a multicultural world. He examines such crucial contemporary issues as the moral foundations of a free society, the role of spiritual values in promoting human rights, current challenges to Western culture, and the place of faith and love of God in finding true peace. Joseph Ratzinger proposes a balance of faith and reason that avoids the extremes of fundamentalist theocracies and secular, relativist states.

Topics include:
Politics and morality
Peace
The meaning of history
Truth in a pluralistic world
The moral basis of democratic states
Relativism
Human dignity
The Christian basis for hope
