Abstract:
The article sets the future of Christianity within the context of different master narratives, beginning with those employed by social scientists, scrutinizing some of their key characteristics. It then considers characteristics of master narratives in general, before looking at paradoxes of universalism and particularity, the collective and the individual, in relation to the inherent character of political reason.Document Type: Regular paper
