Description
Summary:Composed of seven essays on civil society written within the Catholic and neo-Calvinist traditions, this thought-provoking volume seeks theological insights that are relevant to the ordering of political life, particularly with regard to the role of civil society. It moves from primarily theoretical reflections to practical ones, such as through commenting on the implications of Catholic and neo-Calvinist thought for school choice and faith-based initiatives. The essays range from primarily explicating particular theological positions to arguing that these theological positions ought to be accepted even outside Christian circles.
