Summary
The relationship between theology as a science and ecclesiastical government has often been approached from systematic and practical-theological standpoints in the last decades. The authors in this volume give examples of this in the essays they have written and provide a survey of the history of the relationship between the two areas from early Christendom up to the 20th century, a relationship fraught with tension and arguments. The essays focus mainly on the modern era.
