For a century or more political theology has been in decline.
Recent years, however, have seen increasing interest not only in
how church and state should be related, but in the relation between
divine authority and political authority, and in what religion has
to say about the limits of state authority and the grounds of
political obedience. In this book, Nicholas Wolterstorff addresses
this whole complex of issues. He takes account of traditional
answers to these questions, but on every point stakes out new
positions. Wolterstorff offers a fresh theological defense of
liberal democracy, argues that the traditional doctrine of 'two
rules' should be rejected and offers a fresh exegesis of Romans 13,
the canonical biblical passage for the tradition of Christian
political theology. This book provides useful discussion for
scholars and students of political theology, law and religion,
philosophy of religion and social ethics.
