Abstract

"As the sea level rose, every street became a canal. Every skyscraper an island. For the residents of one apartment building in Madison Square, however, New York in the year 2140 is far from a drowned city. There is the market trader, who finds opportunities where others find trouble. There is the detective, whose work will never disappear--along with the lawyer's, of course. There is the internet star, beloved by millions for her airship adventures, and the building's manager, quietly respected for his attention to detail. Then there are two boys who don't live there, but have no other home--and who are more important to its future than anyone might imagine. Lastly there are the coders, temporary residents on the roof, whose disappearance triggers a sequence of events that threatens the existence of all--and even the long-hidden foundations on which the city rests."--

Abstract

What will the Catholic Church be like in a hundred years ? In "The Future Chuch", John L. Allen Jr., puts forth the ten trends he believes will transform the Church by the twenty-second century. From the influence of Catholics in Africa, Asia, and Latin America on doctrine and practices to the impact of multinational organizations on local and ethcal standards, Allen delves into the impact of globalization on the Roman Catholic Church and argues that it must rethink fundamental issues, policies, and ways of doing business. Allen shows that over the next century, the Church will have to respond to changes within the institution itself and in the world as a whole, whether it is contending with biotechnical advances - including cloning and genetic enhancement - facing the reality of an aging Catholic population, or expanding the roles of the laity.
