Dialectical Theology and Jacques Ellul : an Introductory Exposition / Jacob E. Van Vleet. - Minneapolis : Fortress Press, ℗♭2014. - 1 online resource (viii, 239 pages)

Introduction: The skeleton key -- dialectical hermeneutics -- Primary influences on Ellul's dialectical worldview -- Ellul's dialectical worldview -- God, salvation, and freedom -- Technique, necessity, and consequences -- Propaganda and politics -- Hope, nonviolence, and Christian anarchism -- Conclusion: Jacques Ellul -- dialectician and prophet.

Argues that the work of Jacques Ellul is frequently-and deleteriously-misread on account of inattention to the theological underpinning that governs Ellul's thought ... Van Vleet provides a substantive account of the theological structure of Ellul's work and demonstrates the determinative role that theology, especially dialectical theology, plays in a proper understanding of Ellul.--Provided by publisher.
