100集記念号I. はじめにII. モラルのダイナミックスの一般理論の概念III. 希望の責任の観念史 : モルトマンとメッツIV. モラルの動力としての希望 : マッコーリーに即してV. 希望と,罪・恩恵・謝恩 : マッコーリーとフレッチャーVI. むすびIn this paper, the writer is presenting a general theory of moral dynamics. "Moral dynamics" herein means the ethics which deals with the forces acting on our moral lives such as motive force, motivation force, driving force, and energizing force. "General theory" represents a process for exploring what is common between Christian ethics and non-Christian ethics. The possibility of such a theory had been suggested in 1960's by several Christian theologians including Jurgen Moltmann, Johann Baptist Metz, John Macquarrie and Joseph Fletscher. Through the examination of the ethical theories of these theologians, I showed my theory that "gratitude for grace" and "hope" are the basic forces which act on our moral lives, and that these are also the concept of non-Christian ethics.
