Opis

Liberalism forms the dominant political ideology of the modern world. Despite its pervasive influence, this is the first book-length treatment of liberal political thought from a Christian theological perspective. Song discusses the different approaches to the subject of three twentieth-century theologians--Reinhold Niebuhr, George Grant, and Jacques Maritain--and draws out the implications for current political thought.

Recenzje

'Many books have been written refcently about theology and liberalism in general, but very few, like this useful study by Robert Son, engage in details with the interaction between theology, and liberal political theory...This is a good book, carefully and responsibly argued, showing that the tradition of Christian democratic thought is alive and well among Evangelicals as well as Catholics.'
