Description

Karl Barth was one of the most important Christian theologians of the twentieth century, but his political views have often not been taken sufficiently into account.

Beginning with a representative early essay by Karl Barth, this volume proceeds with essays by Friedrich-Wilhelm Marquardt, Helmut Gollwitzer, Hermann Diem, Dieter Schellong, Joseph Bettis, and George Hunsinger.

These contributions engage both the relationship of Barth's theology to his socialist politics as well as Marquardt's analysis.

This new edition expands upon the earlier one by adding three new essays by Hunsinger on Barth's theology and its relevance for human rights, liberation theology, and the theories of Rene Girard on violence and scapegoating.

Hunsinger has extended the discussion as well as deepened our insight into how theology can speak meaningfully about fundamental issues of human need.
