A Christian Theory of Social Institutions

By Herman Dooyeweerd

Herman Dooyeweerd presents a Christian framework for understanding society, showing how social institutions-family, church, state, and more-are grounded in creation, fall, and redemption. Rejecting purely secular or empirical views, he argues that institutions are shaped by divine law and normative principles. With an introduction by John Witte Jr., this classic work offers a rigorous, biblically informed perspective on the foundations of social life and their relevance for philosophy, sociology, and Christian ethics.
