Disclaimer--This definition is for the benefit of everyone, especially Christians, Muslims and Secularists, but less so for professional Christian theologians and philosophers. If my intended major audience were to include the latter two groups, the above definition would require considerable editing.

kuyperiana

This is a body of literature from a tradition started by Abraham Kuyper that has led to the creation of a unique but powerful Christian perspective that undergirds much of my work and that of an increasing number of other socially concerned philosophers, theologians, authors, politicians, labour leaders, etc. from various continents.
