Opis

What do undergraduates really think about parties, hookups, and relationships? After analyzing their own complex social reality, Jennifer Beste's students engage in dialogue with theologians, ethicists, and social scientists about paths to happiness and the best ways to create sexual and relational justice on their college campuses.

Recenzje

College Hookup Culture and Christian Ethics weaves together original ethnographic research, theological reflection on full human living and loving, and a justice-oriented analysis of sexual norms and campus culture in a way that is engaging, insightful, and thought-provoking even if, at times, it is also unsettling and uncomfortable... For anyone interested in learning more about student experiences and working toward creating more just and supportive environments for college students, College Hookup Culture and Christian Ethics is an engaging and worthwhile read.
