Antirevolutionaire staatkunde

Originally published in 1874, this is a seminal work of Dutch political thought and a key text in the history of Christian democracy. Drawing on both Calvinist theology and conservative political theory, Kuyper presents a vision of society based on the principle of 'sphere sovereignty', which holds that each social institution has its own distinct role and authority. With its clear and forceful argumentation, this book remains relevant to contemporary debates about the proper role of the state.
