contra Ernst Troeltsch

Alister MeGrath reviewed Civic Calvinism in Northwestern Germany and the Netherlands: Sixteenth to Nineteenth Centuries, by Heinz Schilling, in The Journal of Theological Studies (at The Free Library).

"Perhaps the most significant contribution of the work concerns the somewhat questionable generalizations of earlier generations of sociologists of religion concerning the impact of Calvinism upon culture."

See Calvin, Institutes of the Christian Religion, in Great Books of the Western World (second edition, 60 Vol., 1990) volume 30.
