Article ‘Joseph H. H. Weiler’s Approach to the Democratic Legitimacy of the European Union: Is There a Message for Neo-Calvinists?’

June 13, 2014 Hans-Martien ten Napel

'Abstract The classic question posed by Tocqueville about the relationship between values and democracy is coming to the fore again. The main argument of this article is that, while the social doctrine of the Catholic Church has a clear answer to this question, Neo-Calvinism does not or at least does to a lesser extent. To… Continue reading Article ‘Joseph H. H. Weiler’s Approach to the Democratic Legitimacy of the European Union: Is There a Message for Neo-Calvinists?’

Constitutionalism, Democracy and Religious Freedom. o Be Fully Human

“Op 15 juni 922 laat graaf Dirk I van Egmond (de eerste Hollandse graaf) het gebeente van Adelbertus overbrengen (translatie) naar een door hem gesticht benedictijnenklooster dat verder landinwaarts is gelegen: de eerste Abdij van Egmond, waar nu ongeveer de nieuwe abdij staat. Meteen daarna ontstaat er in eerstgenoemd kerkje, op de plaats van het graf van Adelbertus, een geneeskrachtige bron van helder en zoet water, die wij heden ten dage nog terugvinden in de Adelbertusput op de Adelbertusakker.” #adelbertus #adelbertusakker #adelbertusabdij #abdij #adelbertusbron
