Synopsis

Abraham Kuyper (18371920) pastor, theologian, journalist, and politician is highly regarded as exemplifying how a Christian worldview can be confidently expressed in both theory and practice. Honouring the spirit of Kuypers legacy, The Kuyper Center Review annually publishes substantial essays that relate the tradition of Reformed theology to issues of public life. Kuyper was a principal force, both political and intellectual, behind the democratisation of politics and public life that occurred in the Netherlands at the close of the nineteenth century. This volume reflects on that legacy, not only examining its theological roots and historical context but also assessing democracys prospects in our own day and considering the ways in which Reformed theology might provide resources for democratic criticism and renewal.
