Recent political events around the world have raised the spectre of
an impending collapse of democratic institutions. Contemporary
concerns about the decline of liberal democracy are reminicent to
the tumult of the 1930s and 1940s in Europe. Karl Barth and
Dietrich Bonhoeffer lived in Germany during the rise of National
Socialism, and each reflected on what the rise of totalitarianism
meant for the aspirations of modern politics. Engaging the
realities of totalitarian terror, they avoided despairing
rejections of modern society. Beginning with Barth in the wake of
the First World War, following Bonhoeffer through the 1930s and
1940s in Nazi Germany, and concluding with Barth's post-war
reflections in the 1950s, this study explores how these figures
reflected on modern society during this turbulent time and how
their work is relevant to the current crisis of modern democracy.
