For centuries it has been discussed whether systematic theology is a scientific discipline. But it is not obvious what is meant by either 'systematic theology' or 'scientific discipline'. Michael Agerbo Mørch presents an understanding of systematic theology as a tripartite discipline and science as a rationally justified public discourse about a given topic. Systematic theology is shown to meet the most generally accepted criteria for scientific work, since its theories can be tested and even falsified in an intersubjective setting.

For centuries it has been discussed whether systematic theology is a scientific discipline. But it is not obvious what is meant by either 'systematic theology' or 'scientific discipline'. Michael Agerbo Mørch presents an understanding of systematic theology as a tripartite discipline and science as a rationally justified public discourse about a given topic. Systematic theology is shown to meet the most generally accepted criteria for scientific work, since its theories can be tested and even falsified in an intersubjective setting. This can be done by the most proper tool we have for assessing and comparing scientific theories, which is coherence theory. Therefore, even though systematic theology is a distinct and normative discipline, it is not compromising for its theories because it can present its theses in a transparent way that can be checked and criticized by peers and compared to relevant alternatives. As such, the book shows that systematic theology is a scientifically strong discourse that meets accepted criteria to the same degree as other disciplines. Michael Agerbo Mørch is Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology at the Copenhagen Lutheran School of Theology.
