Why is human agency important? This talk explores how religious traditions, especially the Catholic tradition, have responded to these questions by considering how people develop moral judgement and what gives human work its value.
The Maxine and Jonathan Marshall Speaker Series on Religion and Conflict is an endowed lecture series that honors the lifelong commitment of Maxine Besser Marshall ('76) and Jonathan Marshall to education, civil liberties and world peace.
