Introduction: Political Love
Abstract
This volume offers theological and theoretical investigations and concrete proposals for practices of Pope Francis’ generative concept of political love. We hope these articles and the issue as a whole spur further analysis of the concept. What theological and theoretical commitments distinguish his vision from others? What other concrete practices instantiate political love in other social, economic, and political relationships, both macro and micro? Where, particularly, are we called to embody Christoform political love in our current moment—what would it look like and what would it take to make it real?
