In this important study John de Gruchy examines the historic and contemporary roles of Christianity in the development of democracy. Distinguishing between, yet relating, democracy to the prophetic vision of a just society, he traces the gestation of modern democracy in medieval Christendom, and then describes the virtual breakdown of the relationship as democracy becomes the polity of modernity.
