In Pursuit of Justice

James Skillen argues persuasively in favor of a Christian-Democratic approach to politics as a needed corrective to both the right and the left in our country. The book culminates with a call for proportional representation (at least in the House of Representatives), which would make it possible for us to vote for candidates who actually most closely represent our views – not just settling for the so-called “lesser of two evils.” While the book is now almost 15 years old, somehow it feels timelier than ever.
