Christian Theology & The British Constitution: A manifesto for Public Theology.
Dr Ritzema will argue for the recovery of Christian theological traditions underpinning the British constitution, and in particular the British monarchy. Additionally, unlike secular, Enlightenment republics like France or the USA, Britain’s democratic constitutional monarchy still bears the marks of Christian theological beliefs about the nature of sovereignty, human society, and the common good.
