Book excerpt: Rebecca Todd Peters argues for an ethic of solidarity as a new model for how people of faith in the first world can live with integrity in the midst of global injustice and shape a more just future. Solidarity Ethics seeks to address the economic and social structures of our globalized context. Peters argues for a concrete ethics rooted in the Christian tradition of justice and transformation deeply informed by solidarity and relationality. Utilizing these theologically rich resources, an ethics of relational reflection, action, and construction is provided as an avenue for building viable strategies for social transformation.
