Beskrivelse
Baptist ideals like the separation of church and state have indelibly shaped Western democracies, and Baptist thinkers continue to influence public policy and political engagement today. Yet the historical contours, enduring commitments, and current contributions of Baptist political thought are little understood.
Baptist Political Theology, edited by scholars Thomas Kidd, Paul Miller, and Andrew Walker, introduces readers to the full sweep of Baptist engagement with politics. Part 1 introduces key thinkers from the early 17th century to the current day; Part 2 surveys Baptist involvement specifically in American politics; and Part 3 applies Baptist principles to a range of contemporary issues.
