Australian eJournal of Theology

From the Editor

In this issue, we have incorporated responses to a couple of articles in a manner which, we hope, provides further insight. Noted Girard scholar, Simon De Keukelaere, responds to Joel Hodge. Likewise, Paul Oslington's provocative, interdisiplinary essay on "Deus Economicus" is supplemented by a further essay in which Tony Kelly, Neil Ormerod and Paul Oslington enter into debate and dialogue on the original essay. The significance of contemporary French philosophy for theological reflection—Jean-Luc Marion, Jacques Derrida and René Girard—is evident in a number of articles.
