Biography
Dan Rohrer holds a B.A. in Religion and a B.A. in English from Denison University and an M.Div. from Candler School of Theology at Emory University. He also studied at the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Germany. His research focuses on Protestant pacifism in Europe and the United States from World War II to the present, with attention to the ways virtue ethics and the just war tradition can be applied to Christian contexts in an era of postmodern difference.
