Christian theology was potent in Western society until the nineteenth century, and the so-called \"satisfaction theory\" of the atonement interacted and reacted with penal practice. Gorringe argues that atonement theology created a structure of affect that favored retributive policies. He reviews theory and practice in the twentieth century, and makes concrete proposals for both theology and criminal and societal violence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Timothy Gorringe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/14\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.42h x 5.43w x 0.68d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521557627\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40924531884147,"sku":"9.78052E+12","price":48.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_0f4011a3-2af7-41c2-b77a-142aec800a63.jpg?v=1692193618","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/gods-just-vengeance-crime-violence-and-the-rhetoric-of-salvation-9780521557627","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
