Christianity and Democracy

A Theology for a Just World Order

Beschreibung

In this important study John de Gruchy examines the historic and contemporary roles of Christianity in the development of democracy. Distinguishing between, yet relating, democracy to the prophetic vision of a just society, he traces the gestation of modern democracy in medieval Christendom, and then describes the virtual breakdown of the relationship as democracy becomes the polity of modernity.
