Via Moderna and

federal perspectives

Perspectives on

Christianity &

culture without the

Reformed

philosophical

ideologies

Approaches to Christianity and culture that are not tied to the philosophical traditions like neocalvinism, to one of the apologetics systems or to millennial systems we are calling here by the old medieval name of the via moderna. Those earlier thinkers had also dropped the burden of the systems, in their case Aristotle, and did philosophy in a newer but Christian theistic manner. As a separate topic, by federal we are interested in the bottom-up, representational and law-based ideas of government that were associated with the Conciliarist Movement, and taken up by latter opponents of state absolutism.
