CPJ-Articles (Shared Justice, etc.)
This wide Articles collection from CPJ, is actually a consolidation of its past journals, such as Shared Justice and Public Justice Review, along with some others. All are searchable by filters and topics, covering a very wide range of issues; some are more scholarly in nature and some are more blog-styled. Shared Justice is a section and program catering to millennials and students exploring the intersection of faith and politics, and seems to tilt in a younger, more progressive direction. As a cautious caveat, a hint of that leaning seems it may be appearing in CPJ’s viewpoints in its work as a whole (see comments in INDEPENDENT SCITTS).
