Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores Afrikaner civil religion and the development of religious and political forces that shaped modern-day South Africa. The author provides a historical backdrop of the region, discussing Afrikaner history in relation to American history to underscore the unique experience of the Afrikaners. It explores the influence and evolution of Reformed evangelicalism, Kuyperian neo-Calvinism, and Romantic Nationalism, tracing how these forces shaped Afrikaner civil religion, particularly after the Anglo-Boer War. The book examines the work of theologians and activists who dissented from Afrikaner ideology and challenged the apartheid system. Their work set the stage for the political and social reforms of the 1980s and 1990s. This book provides valuable insights into the complex interplay of religion, politics, and social change in South Africa, offering a deeper understanding of the forces that shaped the country's past and continue to shape its present-day dynamics.
