BRIAN STILTNER, PH.D.
Brian Stiltner, is Associate Professor of Religious Studies. His teaching and research interests include bioethics, ethics of war and peace, Catholic social ethics, and the role of religion in democratic public life. The last two topics were discussed in his first book, Religion and the Common Good (1999), and these interests led to his collaboration with Dr. Steven Michels of the Government and Politics department on a forthcoming article about the religious speech of presidential candidates. Dr. Stiltner's second book is Faith and Force: A Christian Debate about War (Georgetown, 2007), which features spirited debate between himself and his coauthor, David Clough, over topics such as the Iraq War (www.faithandforce.com). Reviews in Religion and Theology said that "Stiltner and Clough have produced what must be one of the pedagogically most useful texts on the Christian deliberation over war." Dr. Stiltner has been a member of the department since 1998; he served as chairperson from 2006 to 2008. He is also the Director of the Center for Catholic Thought, Ethics & Culture (CCTEC).
