The Church of England and the Second World War : Ethical Traditions in Anglican Public Theology /

: In The Church of England and the Second World War , John D. Alexander analyses how historic Christian ethical traditions influenced the Church of England's contributions to British pre-war and wartime public policy debates. These traditions include just war, holy war, pacifism, and Christian realism as deployed by such diverse Anglican figures as Cosmo Gordon Lang, William Temple, Herbert Hensley Henson, George Bell, Cyril Forster Garbett, Charles Raven, Percy Hartill, Evelyn Underhill, Vera Brittain, and James Parkes. Additional themes include war as divine judgement, humanitarian intervention, and Church of England responses to the Holocaust. As a case study in the application of Christian ethical traditions, this book makes vital connections between Anglican studies, international relations theory, and the diplomatic, military, and humanitarian challenges of the mid-twentieth century.

The Rise of the Covenant of Redemption in the Theology of Samuel Rutherford /

: The Church of Scotland divine Samuel Rutherford (1600-61) was among the first theologians to say that Christ's saving work took place to fulfill an agreement between God and Christ that had been made in eternity. By placing Rutherford's major statements of this new doctrine in their various social, political, polemical, and pastoral contexts, this book provides a fresh explanation for the dramatic rise of the eternal covenant of redemption to become the cornerstone of Reformed federal theology and offers a case-study in the development of doctrine.

Internal Self-determination and the Prevention of Secession in International Law /

: Internal self-determination (ISD) empowers communities to shape their destiny within a state, transforming tension into opportunity. By actively engaging citizens in decision-making, governments can tailor policies to meet unique cultural and economic needs, quelling discontent and building trust. This dynamic process channels energy into reform and inclusion, ensuring every voice is heard and valued. As grievances are addressed, loyalty to the state strengthens and the appeal of secession fades. Ultimately, internal self-determination fosters unity, invigorates national pride, and creates a resilient, inclusive society that prevents fragmentation and secures lasting peace. Recognizing that self-determination extends beyond its traditional external form to include internal practices offers a viable solution for preserving its contemporary legal relevance and advancing human rights.
