Herman Dooyeweerd
The twentieth-century Dutch philosopher Herman Dooyeweerd (1894–1977) left behind an impressive canon of philosophical works and has continued to influence a scholarly community in Europe and North America, which has extended, critiqued, and applied his thought in many academic fields. Jonathan Chaplin introduces Dooyeweerd for the first time to many English readers by critically expounding Dooyeweerd’s social and political thought and by exhibiting its pertinence to contemporary civil society debates. Chaplin begins by contextualizing Dooyeweerd’s thought, first in relation to present-day debates and then in relation to the work of the Dutch philosopher Abraham Kuyper (1837–1920). C...

The six contributors interpret the basis of Dooyeweerd's thought which was to view the character of the world from the perspective of Christian religion.

Co-published with the Institute for Christian Studies.

Christian Philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd
Originally available only in typewritten manuscript, Pierre Marcel's two-volume analysis of the philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd has now been made available to the reading public in a magnificent English translation by Colin Wright. The first volume provides a detailed analysis of Dooyeweerd's critique of theoretical thought. Dooyeweerd analyzed the very basis of thought itself, its presuppositions; and then also the consequences of those presuppositions. The entire range of historical philosophy is taken into account, as are all the schools that manifested themselves up until the time of his writing. The second volume provides an analysis of Dooyeweerd's positive philosophy based on explicit presuppositions, those of Christianity. Dooyeweerd analyzes reality in the light of the framework of laws of thought embedded in the mind and in extant reality. The result is an audacious synthesis that provides a foundation for justified reason. Marcel constructively criticizes both these areas of Dooyeweerd's achievement in the two volumes now presented. They will occupy the top shelf of the works dedicated to the analysis and continuation of the great Dutchman's philosophical magnum opus.
The Philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd
Herman Dooyeweerd (1894-1977) remains one of the most pivotal figures in Reformed Christian philosophy, whose work offers a profound reorientation of how believers engage with the world of thought. This book presents a scholarly introduction to Dooyeweerd's Philosophy of the Cosmonomic Idea (or The Law-Idea), a system that challenges the dualisms and reductions of modern and postmodern thought by grounding every aspect of life in the Creator's sovereign law-order. Dooyeweerd's philosophy stands as a rigorous and uniquely Reformed response to the fragmented nature of contemporary thought. He posits that all spheres of human activity-be it science, politics, art, or ethics-are distinct yet integrally related, each governed by its own modal laws within a coherent, divinely-ordained structure. His work calls for a renewed understanding of the antithesis between the Christian and non-Christian worldview, insisting that the root of all theoretical thought must be a radical commitment to the Word of God. This expanded, academic publication by D. F. M. Strauss is an excellent guide for those familiar with Dooyeweerd and his philosophy.
