The Structures of Virtue and Vice by Daniel J Daly

The Structures of Virtue and Vice by Daniel J Daly

Daly uses the lens of virtue and vice to reimagine a Catholic ethics that can scrutinize the social forces that both affect our moral character and contribute to human well-being or suffering, creating an ethical framework for responding virtuously to the problems caused by global social systems.

Daly focuses not only on readability but also on depthHis detailed yet concise historical account of the shift from the casuistry between the 13th to 18th centuries, to the manualism of the 18th century up to Vatican II, emphasizes the growing end of Catholic theology since. In engaging ways, the book presents thorough examples of real-world sociostructural quandaries, such as sweatshop labor, university dynamics, and global warming.
