Description
The re-emergence of Christian political involvement today is spurred by the recognition not only that the Bible and Christian Faith have something to say about politics and the state, but that they are the only unmovable anchor of the state. The articles in this symposium deal with the following subjects: the reconstructive task, reconstruction in church and state, economics, theology, and philosophy.
