Hauerwas's claim, and his contribution toward a socially constituted and historically embodied account of the moral life and moral reason, are often charged with sectarianism, relativism, and tribalism. Emmanuel Katongole defends Hauerwas's dismissal of the traditional philosophical problem of the relation between ethics and religion. It is, he argues, part of Hauerwas's wider attempt to set aside the dominant Kantian moral tradition. Standard fare in moral philosophy, inspired by that tradition, fosters a highly formal, ahistorical view of ethics that does not do justice to our experience of ourselves as moral agents.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Katongole’s well-written book is a significant contribution. ...[A] historical conception of the moral life that is among the most coherent and comprehensive to date. ...[T]his fine work deserves to be read widely.” —\u003ci\u003eTheological Studies\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Katongole gives us the best critical analysis of Hauerwas’ work currently available.”—\u003ci\u003ePro Ecclesia\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“[A] comprehensive and perceptive understanding of Hauerwas’s work....
