OUR PHILOSOPHICAL WORK

 

The reformational philosophy promoted by the Association aims to stimulate radical Christian reflection in a post-Christian society. With the insights of this philosophy, the Association seeks to contribute to a deepened philosophical understanding of created reality and thereby give support to every valuable insight that is provided by the sciences and which arises from out of social life.

 

A truly reformational philosophy grows out of an enriched appreciation for the people have thought about reality in a biblically-directed way. In the first decades of the 20th century Herman Dooyeweerd and Dirk Vollenhoven, professors at the Vrije Universiteit, initiated this philosophical movement. Philosophers from all over the world have found scholarly inspiration from this way of thinking and are busy developing new contributions based upon its central Christian insights. They believing that a reformational philosophical understanding of reality is indeed possible.
