Description
Desiring a Better Country explores five pressing issues in contemporary debates on religion and politics. From the grounding of human rights to the future of religious freedom, Douglas Farrow challenges common misconceptions about secular institutions and their role in public life.
Farrow engages with leading thinkers from Augustine to John Rawls, as well as contemporary political figures and legal scholars, drawing on Catholic teaching both before and after Vatican II. His arguments treat issues such as the dislocation of marriage's goods and the peculiar liberty of the Church.
