Synopsis

This volume explores Christianity’s relationship with democracy in a global perspective.

How are the various democratic ideals being addressed by influential Christian intellectuals, theologians, ethicists, churches and church leaders around the world today? The contributors reflect on the status of the democratic idea in the churches, theological academy and public religious life in a variety of social and political contexts. They consider how the democratic idea can be cultivated in Christian communities and intellectual traditions with a view to contemporary challenges.

This book will be of particular interest to scholars of religion, theology and political science.
