2. ANGLICANORUM COETIBUS: ECUMENICAL IMPLICATIONS FOR MUTUAL RECOGNITION OF MINISTRY.

Author

Evans, G. R.

Subjects
*MINISTRY & Christian union, *SPEECHES, addresses, etc., *ANGLICAN orders, *DISPENSATIONS, *DIOCESES (Canon law), *CHURCH history
Abstract

This paper argues that the ecclesiology of Anglicanorum coetibus is unsatisfactory from an ecumenical point of view. While recognizing the validity of the ecclesial life of Anglicans, it identifies this life chiefly as an identity of rites. This reinforces rather than addresses the problem of mutual recognition of ministry arising from the Roman Catholic insistence that Anglican Orders are null and void, on which so many attempts at rapprochement have foundered. These ecumenical drawbacks are examined in the context of the notions of dispensation and oikonomia, emergency and exceptional provision. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

3. SANCTA INDIFFERENTIA AND ADIAPHORA.

Author

Evans, G. R.

Subjects
*QUIETISM, *CHRISTIANITY, *ADIAPHORA, *INDIFFERENTISM (Religion), *LITERARY characters, *CASUISTRY, *DOCTRINAL theology, *RITES & ceremonies, *THEOLOGICAL anthropology, *MYSTICISM
Abstract

The article elucidates the controversies regarding holy indifference and things indifferent. Accordingly, it explores the methods in which both these controversies derived from the stream of medieval disagreement, elucidating the contributions of the characters of the story and search to depict the common idea which conjugates the history, and the representation of quietism to Christianity. Inasmuch, it describes the particularities of several Christian practices, personal desires, and pleasures of the senses which all mitigated in abandoning the soul in God's presence.

5. Ethical Issues at the University-Industry Interface: A Way Forward?

Author

Evans, G. R. and Packham, D. E.

Subjects
*ACADEMIC-industrial collaboration, *BUSINESS ethics, *CLINICAL trials, *CONFLICT of interests, *INTELLECTUAL property, *SCIENCE education
Abstract

This paper forms an introduction to this issue, the contents of which arose directly or indirectly from a conference in May 2001 on Corruption of scientific integrity? -- The commercialisation of academic science. The introduction, in recent decades, of business culture and values into universities and research institutions is incompatible with the openness which scientific and all academic pursuit traditionally require. It has given rise to a web of problems over intellectual property and conflict of interest which has even led to corporate sponsors' suppressing unfavourable results of clinical trials, to the detriment of patients' health. Although there are those who see the norms of science developing to recognise the importance of instrumental science aiming at specific goals and of knowledge judged by its value in a context of application, none justifies the covert manipulation of results by vested interest. Public awareness of these problems is growing and creating a climate of opinion where they may be addressed. We suggest a way forward by the introduction of nationally and internationally-accepted guidelines for industrial collaboration which contain proper protections of the core purposes of universities and of the independence of their research. Some codes suggested for this purpose are discussed. We note that some universities are moving to adopt such codes of conduct, but argue the need for strong support from the government through its funding bodies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

12. Reading Job with St Thomas Aquinas.

Author

Evans, G. R.

Subjects
*READING, *REWARD (Psychology)
Abstract

978 0 8132 3283 6 The introduction to this multi-author volume sets Aquinas's I Expositio i on Job in the extensive existing tradition of commentary on Job to which his contemporaries were also adding. This is a workmanlike and insightful collection of essays, in which breathes something of the spirit of the schoolroom for which Aquinas wrote his practical aid for the I fratres communes i in their study of the book of Job, and in which he can be seen developing his own thinking. The three papers collected in the first section of the book, entitled "Job and I sacra doctrina i ", are accordingly concerned with what Aquinas understood about teaching.

Author

Evans, G. R.

Subjects
*INTELLECTUAL life, *SCHOLARLY method, *EDUCATIONAL law & legislation, *EDUCATIONAL innovations, *TENURE of college teachers, *EMPLOYMENT tenure
Abstract

The author discusses the need for the British academic community to focus on the future of the sector. He says with the 1988 Education Reform Act, academics started losing their security of tenure and have since then come under line management, which is seen in the increase of short-term contracts. He believes that doing preparations and keeping up are essential in maintaining the future of the educational sector, even if it is a given that there can be no future without it.
