| Zusammenfassung: | In this essay, I ask what the precise relation is between Laudato si's theology and its claims about our individual and corporate responsibility for the environment and the plight of the poor. To do so, I first clarify the relationship between the theological claims and its account of moral norms, situating the text within the history of western ethical theory. I then turn to reconstruct the submerged theology of the encyclical, focusing on Pope Francis's accounts of the techno-economic paradigm and the possibility of an integral ecology paradigm. I end by assessing the text in terms of the coherence and plausibility of its argument as an ethical and theological statement. |
