Opis

2015 marks the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta, a document iconic of the age-old fight for liberty against organized tyranny. But what has really changed since the thirteenth century? And how should Western society come to terms with the unprecedented challenges posed by central banking, mass surveillance, gay marriage, the substitution of education for job-training, and the abuse of federal power in relation to the states? In a unique and diverse compilation of essays, Proclaim Liberty offers thoughtful insight to these matters (and more) from a distinctly Christian perspective. Contributors include accomplished professors, lawyers, philosophers, historians, and activists who are proud but concerned citizens of the U.S. The book carves out new possibilities while also seeking to rediscover those areas of ancient tradition that desperately need present attention. Readers cannot but benefit from the wide variety of topics, tone, and approach in an original collection that addresses some of the most controversial topics of our time.
