Globalisation, the rise and fall of superpowers, the fragilisation of the EU, trade wars, real wars, terrorism, persecution, new nationalism and identity politics, climate change, are just a few of the recent disturbing developments. How can international issues be understood and addressed from a Christian faith perspective? In this book answers are presented from various Christian traditions: Neo-calvinism, Catholic social teaching, critical theory and Christian realism. The volume offers fundamental theological and Christian philosophical perspectives on international relations and global challenges, case studies about inspiring Christian leaders such as Robert Schuman, Dag Hammarskjöld, Abraham Kuyper and prophetic critiques of supranational issues. 606 $aChristian philosophy 606 $aChristianity and politics 606 $aChristianity and international relations 615 0$aChristian philosophy. 615 0$aChristianity and politics. 615 0$aChristianity and international relations. 676 $a230.01 702 $aBuijs$b Govert J.$f1964- 702 $aPolinder$b Simon 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793845403321 996 $aChristian faith, philosophy & international relations$93707797 997 $aUNINA
