One of these good laws is the separation of religion and state. In Church, State and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethe Ethical Imaginations, Zechariah Manyok Biar explores what lies behind discrepancies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ebetween written laws and their implementations in South Sudan. He comes up with a new\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003econcept of central value systems to see if it can explain factors that contribute to\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003einconsistencies in implementations of legal provisions such as separation of religion and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003estate. Central value system is a conservation value composed of conformity, security and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003etradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe author shows that this book is important in the sense that it introduces a concept\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethat explains why South Sudanese have good written laws but rarely implement them as\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003estipulated. The book will also help non-South Sudanese readers understand discrepancies in\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eimplementations of legal provisions in their respective contexts. It is likely that both\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003econservatives and liberals employ conservation values of conformity, security and tradition to\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eprotect whatever values they cherish. For example, liberals may require conformity from their\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003emembers to secure or protect the main values in their liberal tradition. Similarly, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003econservatives would employ central value systems to shield cherished conservative values. It\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eis probable that the conservation value constitutes a central value system for any person or\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003egroup of any persuasion or school of thought. It resists penetration from new values trying to\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003echange cherished values. In South Sudan, central value systems protect the values of power\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eand harmony. Theology in the context of South Sudan would thus be a theology of harmony.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts base is the Trinitarian God, eschatological in orientation and secular in responsibility. The\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eoriginality of this study is in demonstrating that conservation values form central values that\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003edirect how people react to values that they are uncomfortable with, regardless of whether they\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eare conservatives or liberals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 438\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.97 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 08, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42638081785952,"sku":"9780645719147","price":45.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/V29TZGNkM1JXb05seEl2Wjk0L1V3dz09.webp?v=1772927465","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/church-state-t-h-e-e-t-h-i-c-a-l-imagination-a-phenomenological-study-of-christian-cultural-and-constitutional-value-clashes-in-south-sudan-paperback-1","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
