Abstract

Beginning with the current state of competition in English Theological Education Institutes (TEIs), which is mirrored on both sides of the Atlantic, this multidisciplinary article introduces an initial theological reflection into competition by considering history, social theory and theology and by looking through the lenses of sport, schools and business. The competitive climate that has emerged within Anglican TEIs over the last few centuries is observed by considering an historical overview. That climate is then discussed in terms of social theory using Michael Porter's Competitive Strategy and then with the insights of theology. The way forward is discussed with awareness of how a Christian theology of theological education must include a theology of competition. The aim is to open a discussion rather than to answer the question, though various theological leads are suggested.
