Does Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Ethics have any affinities with what we have now come to call virtue ethics?

If so, what is the relationship between those affinities and the more widely recognized influence of Karl Barth?

Moberly seeks to answer these questions through close analysis of the Ethics and engagement with other interpreters of Bonhoeffer, while discussing the nature of virtue ethics in a Christian context.

The answers may be surprising, but they are certainly rewarding for anyone wanting to better understand Bonhoeffer and to see how his work could be helpful for current ethical debates.
