"The Teachings of Modern Orthodox Christianity on Law,
Politics, and Human Nature" examines how modern Orthodox Christian
thinkers have answered the most pressing political, legal, and
ethical questions of our time. It discusses the enduring teachings
of important Orthodox Christian intellectuals of the late
nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Leading contemporary scholars
analyze these thinkers' views on the nature and purpose of law and
authority, the limits of rule and obedience, the care of the needy
and innocent, the ethics of war and violence, and the separation of
church and state, among other themes. A diverse and powerful
portrait of Orthodox Christian legal and political thought, this
volume underscores the various ways Orthodox Christian
intellectuals have shaped modern debates over the family, the
state, religion, and society. The book concentrates on Russian
philosophers Vladimir Soloviev (1853-1900) and Vladimir Lossky
(1903-1958); Russian theologian Nicholas Berdyaev (1874-1948);
Russian nun and social reformer Mother Maria Skobtsova (1891-1945);
and Romanian theologian Dumitru St?niloae (1903-1993).
