St. Augustine of Hippo: The Christian Transformation of Political Philosophy - Continuum Studies in Philosophy
R.W. Dyson
St Augustine of Hippo was the earliest thinker to develop a distinctively Christian political and social philosophy. To his mind, all States are imperfect. They can provide justice and peace of a kind, but even the best earthly versions of justice and peace are not true justice and peace. This book describes and analyses this 'transformation'.
