Britannia Europa & Christendom

"Britannia, Europa and Christendom" reveals the important role of the Churches in the politics of Britain and united Europe. It brings to light the webs of influence linking Christian leaders and politicians; shows the conflicting relationships between national identity and Christian universalism, and between Britain as a one-time world power, a European nation, and junior partner in the 'transatlantic alliance'. It comments on the place of Europe's Christian heritage at the beginning of what may be a new era of conflict between West and East.
