Description

The New Inquisitions by Arthur Versluis offers a unique investigation into the intellectual origins of totalitarianism. This work explores the connection between heretic hunting in early and medieval Christianity and the rise of twentieth-century totalitarian regimes. Versluis examines how nineteenth-century secular political thinkers established a tradition of defending the Inquisition. He tracks how these methods of heretic hunting eventually appeared across the political spectrum in the twentieth century. This wide-ranging study from Oxford University Press provides a deep look at the historical roots of modern political control and the evolution of ideological enforcement.
