LINCOLN LECTURE SERIES EP#08: JUST WORLD? How does God call us to balance the interests of people and planet? With Alison Milbank

Together for the Common Good Public Talks

Drawing on Catholic Social Teaching, Alison Milbank explores the common good approach to the conflicting interests of the environmental crisis and social injustice, and how the local church can be a part of the solution. Alison Milbank is Professor of Theology and Literature at the University of Nottingham and has authored many books. She is Priest Vicar and Canon Theologian at Southwell Minster, and co-founder of the Save the Parish movement. Alison is the author of many books, the latest of which is The Once and Future Parish (SCM, 2023). This lecture was given on 17 October 2023 as part a series of nine lectures featuring speakers from different traditions who draw on Catholic Social Thought to explore how the Christian tradition can be a blessing on public life and discourse. Introduced and curated by Jenny Sinclair, these talks were held in partnership with Lincoln Cathedral and CCLA.
