The Rise and Fall of the English Christendom Theocracy Christology Order and Power

The Rise and Fall of the English Christendom Theocracy Christology Order and Power

English Christendom has never been a static entity. Evangelism politics conflict and cultural changes have constantly and consistently developed it into myriad forms across the world. However in recent times that development has seemingly become a general decline. This book utilises the motif of Christendom to illuminate the pedigree of Anglican Christianity allowing a vital and persistent dynamic in Christianity namely the relationship between the sacred and the mundane to be more fundamentally explored. Each chapter seeks to unpack a particular historical moment in which the relations of sacred and mundane are on display. Beginning with the work of Bede before focusing on the Anglo Norman settlement of England the Tudor period and the establishment of the church in the American and Australian colonies Anglicanism is shown to consistently be a religio-political tradition. This approach opens up a different set of categories for the study of contemporary Anglicanism and its debates about the notion of the church. It also opens up fresh ways of looking at religious conflict in the modern world and within Christianity. This is a fresh exploration of a major facet of Western religious culture. As such it will be of significant interest to scholars working in Religious History and Anglican Studies as well as theologians with an interest in Western Ecclesiology. | The Rise and Fall of the English Christendom Theocracy Christology Order and Power

Argentina's Economic Reforms of the 1990s in Contemporary and Historical Perspective

Argentina's Economic Reforms of the 1990s in Contemporary and Historical Perspective

Why has Argentina suffered so much political and economic instability? How could Argentina once one of the wealthiest countries in the world failed to meet its potential over decades? What lessons can we take from Argentina's successes and failures? Argentina’s economy is - irresistibly - fascinating. Argentina's economic history - its crises and its triumphs cannot be explained in purely economic terms. Argentina's economic history can only be explained in the context of conflicts of interest of politics war and peace boom and bust. Argentina's economic history is also intertwined with ideological struggles over the ideal society and the on-going struggle of ideas. The book comprises two distinct components: an economic history of Argentina from the Spanish colonial period to 1990 followed by a narrative by Domingo Cavallo on the last 25 years of reform and counter reform. Domingo Cavallo has been at the centre of Argentina's economic and political debates for 40 years. He was one of the longest serving cabinet members since the return of democracy in 1983. He is uniquely qualified to help the reader make the connection between historical and current events through all these prisms. His daughter Sonia Cavallo Runde is an economist specialized on public policy that currently teaches the politics of development policy. The two Cavallos offer academics and students of economics and finance a long form case study. This book also seeks to offer researchers and policymakers around the world with relevant lessons and insights to similar problems from the Argentine experience. | Argentina's Economic Reforms of the 1990s in Contemporary and Historical Perspective
