Rosario RodrÃÂguez presents Calvin's theology in historical context and explores his global impact by examining Calvin's views on a broad range of social and cultural issues, such as political theology, migration and dislocation, nationalism, social welfare policies, revolution, racism, and religious pluralism. Rosario RodrÃÂguez shows how Calvin's theological legacy impacted the formation of the modern world, its worldview, and its social institutions and presents Calvin as an engaging interlocutor on contemporary matters of social, political, racial, and economic justice.
