Saint Thomas' Political Doctrine And Democracy (1921)

By Edward F. Murphy

Book Overview

Saint Thomas������� Political Doctrine And Democracy is a book written by Edward Francis Murphy in 1921. The book explores the political philosophy of Saint Thomas Aquinas and its relevance to democracy. Murphy argues that Aquinas' political thought provides a solid foundation for democratic governance, as it emphasizes the importance of the common good, the rule of law, and the protection of individual rights. The author also examines the relationship between natural law and democracy, and how Aquinas' ideas on the subject can help us understand the role of government in promoting the common good. Overall, Saint Thomas������� Political Doctrine And Democracy is a thought-provoking work that sheds light on the intersection of political theory and democratic practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
