Neo-Calvinism” Is an Expression Which Was First Used by Max Weber in His Contributions to the Sociology of Religion
Christian Social Thought in the Dutch Neo-Calvinist Tradition Bob Goudzwaard From: Walter Block and Irving Hexham (eds) Religion, Economics and Social Thought: Proceedings of an International Conference Vancouver, Fraser Institute 1986 pp. 251-279 (Chapter Seven). “Neo-Calvinism” is an expression which was first used by Max Weber in his contributions to the sociology of religion. He used it to describe the revival of the social and political teachings of John Calvin which took place, especially in the Netherlands, during the last part of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth centuries. The roots of that revival lie mainly in the so-called Réveil movement, which had its origin in the first half of the nineteenth century in Protestant - not only Calvinistic - circles in Switzerland. That movement stressed the significance of a living Christian faith: biblical studies, and prayer for the reformation of the Church and the renewal of society. The most important Dutch representative of that Réveil was Guillaume Groen van Prinsterer (1801- 1876). Deeply influenced by German thinkers Von Haller and Julius Stahl, who were primarily within the Romantic tradition, Groen gradually developed his own approach to the social and political problems of his time, although he always remained a true “son of the Réveil!” His main published work was a major study of the spirit of the French Revolution, Unbelief and Revolution. He saw the Revolution and its ideals as the driving force behind the modern unbelief of his age. However, Abraham Kuyper (1837-1920) must be seen as the founding father of Dutch neo-Calvinism. -

Abraham Kuyper
abraham kuyper De Vrije Universiteit op weg naar de samenleving A. Kuyper (1837–1920) was van 1880 tot 1901 hoogleraar in de Faculteit der Godgeleerdheid en buitengewoon hoogleraar Nederlandse taal- en letterkunde in de Faculteit der Letteren. George Harinck Abraham Kuyper is zo’n twintig jaar actief geweest als hoogleraar van de Vrije Universiteit. In zijn geval kunnen we gerust zeggen: maar twintig jaar. Want als we deze periode vergelijken met de jaren dat hij mede leiding gaf aan de andere instituten waarvan hij als de voor- naamste architect kan worden aangemerkt, dan valt de korte duur van zijn universitaire betrekking op. De in 1892 gevormde Gereformeerde Kerken in Nederland laat ik buiten beschouwing, ook al was hij een belangrijke vormgever van deze denominatie: formeel gaf hij er geen leiding aan. Maar zijn kerkelijk weekblad De Heraut redigeerde hij een halve eeuw, vanaf 1870 tot op zijn sterfbed in 1920. Van het antirevolu- tionaire dagblad De Standaard was hij bijna vijf decennia hoofdredac- teur, van 1872 tot 1919. Hij had, om het in zijn eigen woorden te zeggen, ‘een halve eeuw’ (vanaf 1869) leiding gegeven aan de antirevolutionai- re actie toen hij het voorzitterschap van de Antirevolutionaire Partij per 1 januari 1919 neerlegde. Kuypers kracht werd soms zijn zwakte: hij organiseerde, bond samen en dreef voort als geen ander en slaagde daarin beter dan wie ook, maar het leiderschap kreeg hem in de greep: hij kon de teugels niet of niet tijdig uit handen geven. En zelfs waar openlijk weerstand werd geboden tegen zijn leiding, zoals in de Antire- volutionaire Partij, bleef hij dwarsliggen en tegenspel bieden, zodat hij binnen zijn eigen partij eindigde als de opposant die hij aanvankelijk naar buiten toe was geweest — al ontbeerde hij inmiddels de kracht van de stormram die hij in zijn jonge jaren was. -
Kuyper and Apartheid: a Revisiting
Kuyper and Apartheid: A revisiting Patrick Baskwell (Brandon, Florida, USA)1 Research Associate: Department of Dogmatics and Christian Ethics University of Pretoria Abstract Was Abraham Kuyper, scholar, statesman, and university founder, the ideological father of Apartheid in South Africa? Many belief so. But, there are others, amongst them George Harinck of the Free University in Amsterdam, who don’t think so. The article argues that there is an element of truth in both opinions. Kuyper did exhibit the casual racism so characteristic of the Victorian era, with its emphasis on empire building and all that it entailed. Kuyper was also directly responsible, ideologically, for the social structure in the Netherlands known as “verzuiling” or “pillarization” in terms of which members of the Catholic, Protestant, or Socialist segments of society had their own social institutions. This pillarizing, or segmenting, of society was, however, always voluntary. This is not true of the pillarizing or segmenting of South African society known as Apartheid. While there are similarities between Apartheid and “verzuiling”, especially in their vertical partitioning of the individual’s entire life, the South African historical context, the mediation of Kuyper’s ideas through South African scholars, the total government involvement, and therefore, the involuntary nature of Apartheid, point to their inherent dissimilarity. Apartheid was simply not pure Kuyper. Hence, while the effects of Kuyper’s ideas are clearly discernable in Apartheid policy, the article aims at arguing that Kuyper cannot be considered the father of Apartheid in any direct way. 1. INTRODUCTION In a recent article, George Harinck, director of the Historisch Documentatiecentrum voor het Nederlands Protestantisme (1800-current) at the Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, the Netherlands, describes the beginnings of his research for a book on Abraham Kuyper. -

Friday Evening Keynote Address Mark A
Friday Evening Keynote Address Mark A. Noll Journal of Markets & Morality Volume 5, Number 1 (Spring 2002), 137–156 Copyright © 2002 A Century of Christian Social Teaching: The Legacy of Leo XIII and Mark A. Noll Abraham Kuyper Wheaton College Looking back as we can now, at the end of the twentieth century, to the end of the nineteenth century, we are able to see much more clearly why the Christian social teachings of Abraham Kuyper and Leo XIII were themselves so insight- ful.1 It is not just that the pope’s Rerum Novarum of 1891 and the many other social encyclicals of his long and distinguished pontificate were words in sea- son from and for a Catholic Church wracked by more than thirty-five years of revolution, strife over dogma, Kulturkampf, and local Italian crises. Nor was it only that Abraham Kuyper’s great lecture in November 1891 on “The Social Problem and the Christian Religion” or his consideration of “Calvinism and Politics” in his 1898 Stone Lectures at Princeton offered what was, for Protestants in the 1890s, that rarest combination of sensitivity to the dispos- sessed with fidelity to a confession. It was not only, to repeat, that these were timely interventions. They were also prescient pronouncements. Their address to current events contained foundational reasoning that has been profitably extrapolated during the century that followed and in conditions and circum- stances that no one in the 1890s could have foreseen. Of course, what Kuyper and the pope said was not flawless; each had his blindspots and his weak- nesses. -
Subsidiarily in Her/His Own Sphere. Women and Christian Politics1
< é Subsidiarily in her/his own sphere. Women and Christian politics1 Bruce C. Weame Honorary Research Associate in Sociology Monash University AUSTRALIA Email: [email protected]. edu.au Abstract Subsidiarity in her/his own sphere. Women and Christian politics This article is a discussion of the attitude of Christian social thought to women. In 1891 two influential Christian documents addressed this issue. Pope Leo XW's Rerum Novarum and Abraham Kuyper’s Het sociaale vraagstuk der Christelijke religie were responses to industrialization and subsequent Christian responses to feminism have had to face the legal, cultural and political aspects of the enhanced female participation in commerce which assumes equality for all consumers in the market-place. Catholic and Protestant political initiatives in Europe in the early 20th century, in line with these two approaches, assumed that the vocation of Christian women, inside and outside the domestic sphere, has to be that of a bulwark against materialism and liberalism. In line with this point o f view they helped to counter the domination of market-place values over all spheres of social life. These documents are also part o f latter-day efforts to reconsider women’s place. Female involvement in industry and public life around the world increases unabated as "affirmative action ” re-structures the public status of women. The ambiguous legacy of "economic rationalism " poses new threats since the burden of social welfare falls again onto the shoulders of overworked women. A sociological account which would be Christian must address historical, social and economic ambiguities. This article explores the issue, noting typical ways in which these two prominent Christian contributions will be interpreted. -
Abraham Kuyper and the Continuing Social Question
Journal of Markets & Morality Volume 14, Number 2 (Fall 2011): 641–646 Copyright © 2011 Abraham Kuyper and the Continuing Harry Van Dyke Professor Emeritus in History Social Question Redeemer College “It is our firm conviction that the Savior, if he were still on earth, would again align himself with the oppressed and against the powerful of our age.” Abraham Kuyper made this bold claim in his newspaper on the eve of the general elec- tions of 1894. What was the issue that made him write this? Why did his fellow churchman and political ally of many years, Alexander de Savornin Lohman, feel compelled to write him that this statement had hurt him deeply? The issue was whether to vote for or against extension of the franchise. Kuyper was for, Lohman against. Lohman (1845–1924) was a landowner, a jurist, and a member of parliament. Kuyper (1837–1920) was a university professor, a newspaper editor, and the chairman of the Antirevolutionary Party. The two men had fought side by side a decade earlier in the battle over church properties that secessionists claimed but that the national church held onto. The question that now divided the friends had exercised the Dutch parliament off and on for decades and had intensified greatly in recent years. It all began when the liberal government introduced an electoral bill regulating eligibility for the right to vote. Its sponsor, Tak van Poortvliet, presented it as the definitive solution to a thorny question that should once for all be put to rest. His proposal interpreted the relevant constitutional provision with the greatest possible lati- tude. -
