Thomas Hughson, S.J. (Ph.D., University of St. Michael's
College, Toronto, 1981). [Systematics/Ethics], specializes
in the social context of Catholic systematic theology. This can
be understood as a project in Bernard Lonergan's functional specialty
of Communications. He edited John Courtney Murray's dissertation,
Matthias Scheeben on Faith: The Doctoral Dissertation of John
Courtney Murray (Edwin Mellen Press, 1987), and authored
The Believer as Citizen: John Courtney Murray in a
New Context (Paulist Press, 1993). More recently, “Citizenship:
Re-Minded by the Holy Spirit,” Anglican Theological Review
(Summer, 2001) and “Public Catholicism: An American Prospect,”
Theological Studies (December 2001) have emerged from
a focus on church and state as co-present dimensions of Christian
existence and a turn toward theology underwriting social witness
in common (i.e., ecumenical). Essays in Lumiere et Vie
and The Way reflected on 9/11. A project with the Communications
Group in the Catholic Theological Society of America focuses on
the potential for renewal in diocesan structures of communication.
At present he serves on the steering committee of the Church-State
Studies Group in the American Academy of Religion, and has a role
in the launching of a society for the study of Anglicanism in
the AAR.
