Kalanges on Radical Orthodoxy

Over at CLR Forum , Notre Dame’s Kristine Kalanges is having a discussion with me and my colleague Marc DeGirolami about Radical Orthodoxy, an intellectual movement that originated in 1990s Britain, and its implications for political theory. Kristine argues that Radical Orthodoxy can provide a sound political philosophy for Christians. In fact, she suggests that political pluralism requires a theological foundation. Marc and I aren’t so convinced. Check it out.
