The Political Aspects of St. Augustine's City of God is a book written by John Neville Figgis in 1921. The book explores the political ideas and theories presented in St. Augustine's City of God, a seminal work of Christian philosophy and theology.

He argues that Augustine's ideas have had a profound impact on the development of Western political thought and that they continue to be relevant today. The book is a comprehensive and insightful analysis of one of the most important works in the history of political philosophy. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of religion and politics, the history of political thought, or the enduring legacy of St. Augustine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
