Religion And Politics In The Revolutionary Era
1,019 wordsThe Christians objective is not this world-certainly not the world of politics-but the Kingdom of God. Christianity is therefore essentially other-worldly. Jesus himself was entirely apolitical, and we, his, followers, must similarly hold aloof from the political arena. However, God is a political God, and a belief in God requires political involvement. (Davies 9) Consequently, the entanglement of politics with religion is inevitable. This concept is supported in Jon Butlers article, Coercion, M...

The libertarian proposal has to be completed by going on to characterize the distribution of rights amon...

Neo Liberal Heritage Dictionary
2,768 wordsIn an effort to dramatize his neo-Polanyian critique of neo-liberal global capitalism, Stephen Gill questions the tenability of his own term market civilization, proposing it as oxymoronic in that a market civilization qua the neo-liberal order contradicts Gills view of civilization qua democratic eco-humanism (i. e. representation, civility, social well-being and inclusion). In this formation, Gills argument is essentially circular in its reliance on his own subjective standard of civilization,...

It is a large part of what holds society together; without it civilized society as we know it would not exist. The functions of power range from keeping crime at bay to the more commonplace aspects such as allowing patrons to be served in a restaurant.
