Welcome

This site contains resources of published research articles and theses regarding biblical political and constitutional theory, from mainly a thematic angle, but also including historical perspectives. The aim is to provide a springboard for further research and discussion on politics (and its relation to the law) from a Christian perspective. This includes research on important contributions emanating from the past, for example, the early and later Reformation. However, any related research on contemporary issues are also included.

We welcome and appreciate any feedback from visitors who have found the website useful, or have any comments or suggestions on how to improve the site.
