Concisely critiquing the internal contradictions and practical
limitations of the social contract theory espoused by John Locke
and John Rawls, Timothy Beach-Verhey presents a covenantal theory
for political life based on H. Richard Niebuhr's theology of
radical monotheism. Beach-Verhey challenges sectarian
interpretations of Niebuhr's theology and cogently demonstrates
that a properly understood, theocentric, covenantal social theory
can unite a diverse people in a shared polity. In so doing, he
shows how such an understanding of both liberal democratic
practices and Christian norms can provoke both the moral vision and
the virtues that are required for robust, open, and engaged public
life. Robust Liberalism makes a powerful contribution to
contemporary discussion of American public discourse.
