A series of eight lectures by the Rev. V. A. Demant , Regius Professor of Moral and Pastoral
Theology and Canon of Christ
Church, Oxford
Political Fuiths;
In his fourth lecture Canon Demant examines the political movements that accompany the decline of Capitalism. The move has been towards Collectivism, and its dangers can best be interpreted through a Christian doctrine of man. To ask whether the passing of Capitalism means the passing of the Liberal Idea is in fact a religious question. Political movements have not left the religious sphere untouched; they have attempted to replace it. This has been shown by the way in which they have taken on a sacred form; to challenge them is sacrilege. There has been some confusion of thought in attempts to understand the interplay of these various forces, and Canon Demant assesses one of the central debates: that is, whether the maintenance of liberal truth depends on the free market of Capitalism.
