 Chapter 2   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
While Anglo-American political thought, generally speaking, tends to view the state as the sum total of individuals, the freedom of whom it was designed to protect, the German tradition containing Hegel and Treitschke saw the state as more than simply the sum of its parts.
Political decisions are thus necessarily amoral; they are evaluations and reactions to threats to the state's very way of life and existence.
In doing so they deprive state and politics of their specific meaning." When the political becomes conflated with the ethical and the economic, the former is no longer properly viewed as an objective realm in which threats to the state's existence are assessed.

In the context of Brazil in the 1950s and early 1960s, we have suggested, the church's political base of support was challenged by encroaching religious and secular value movements, and the church responded in part by redefining its base to be the lower classes.
Within a context of competing value movements, progressive tendencies in international Catholicism, and political repression orchestrated by the ruling military, the church effectively redefined its base in part to be the lower classes and eventually adopted the preferential option for the poor as its principal operating strategy.

 History of the Gunpowder Plot Introduction
The political side of the Roman faith made a mockery of the loyal and patriotic aspirations of a great number of English Catholics upon whom the political Catholics and in particular the Spanish Party brought down the wrath of the national government through their wild, ill conceived and dangerous acts of disloyalty.
They were members of a more radical, frustrated younger generation who lacked the political experience which had placed a strong value upon the concept of English citizenship and patriotism-a generation which was not willing to suffer in silence rather than to put the protections and general benefits of the nation state at risk..
