With the increasing decline of Christianity across the west visible among the majority of denominations, can Eastern Orthodox Christianity halt the Spiritual decline and bring a cultural renaissance and institutional reaffirmation in the west?
Dr.Matthew Raphael, Alexander von Marstall and Lukas Eidolon will be discussing this subject from a metapolitical perspective and try to relate it to the recent surge of Nationalist and Right Populist movements in Europe and the United States.
Matthew Raphael Johnson is a scholar of Russian Orthodox history and philosophy.
He completed his doctorate at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln in 1999.
He is a former professor of both history and political science at the University of Nebraska (as a graduate student), Penn State University and Mount St. Mary’s University.
Since 1999, he was the editor (and is presently Senior Researcher) at The Barnes Review, a well-known journal of European history.
Dr Johnson is the author of eight books.
Six are from Hromada Books, "Sobornosti: Essays on the Old Faith;" "Heavenly Serbia and the Medieval Idea;" "Orthodoxy, Autocracy, Nationality: Lectures on Medieval Russia;" "The Ancient Orthodox Tradition in Russian Literature: "The Foreign Policy of Mass Society: The Failure of Western Engagement in the Middle East;" and "Officially Approved Dissent: Alasdair MacIntyre’s Strategic Ambiguity in His Critique of Modernity."
And two published by The Barnes Review, "The Third Rome: Holy Russia, Tsarism and Orthodoxy;" and "Russian Populist: The Political Thought of Vladimir Putin."
