ET: Anti-Revolutionary political theory with a further explanation of our program. First volume. Its principles.

The first and larger volume of a two-volume work about the basic principles (volume 1) and aims (volume 2) of the Anti-Revolutionary Party. Taken together, these two volumes represented an additional clarification of the principles and practice of the party’s program (see 1878.01 and 1879.04). The work was intended above all for party leaders and administrators who had not received a formal education.

In this first volume Kuyper articulates the biblical, theological, historical, and legal basis for Anti-Revolutionary political theory within a broad thematic framework. He does not simply offer dry analysis but provides numerous illustrative excursuses to make the work both more readable and more accessible to party leaders unaccustomed to academic tomes.
