Mapping A Moral Consensus: Calibrating An Ethical Compass For The Future

Festschrift in honour of Mgr Professor Emmanuel Agius on the occassion of his seventeeth birthday

This Festschrift is dedicated to Mgr Professor Emmanuel Agius as a tribute to his long-standing academic contributions in various fields of research. Professor Agius has worked tirelessly for the wellbeing of society through serious research, open dialogue, and collaboration with distinguished institutions at both national and international levels. His work has been particularly influential in the areas of marriage and the family, ethics and public policy at a European level, and the moral responsibilities owed to future generations. The scholarly articles collected here, skilfully penned by international colleagues and friends, delve into highly topical issues and are intended to honour him by exploring areas of inquiry close to his heart. They invite us to take moral discernment seriously and encourage us to recalibrate our moral compass towards a deeper sense of truth, solidarity, and shared humanity.

“Grounded within the Christian faith and tradition, marked by great intellectual acumen and a deep sense of equity, Professor Agius has laboured tirelessly for a consensus-building approach that seeks win-win outcomes without compromising core Christian principles. He should be lauded for having moral integrity as a compass, and for adopting a personalist approach… meaning that people are not subjugated to the law but are contemplated in light of their fullest dignity.”

Charles J. Scicluna, Archbishop of Malta
