ET: Isolation and integration.

Series of two articles which saw Kuyper, in the wake of the 1897 national elections, oppose both the isolation of the ARP from all other parties and the idea of fusing with them. Overseeing the political landscape, Kuyper concluded that “all parties [were] moving towards the democratic side”. In contrast to the 1894 elections, the “Christian element” was for that reason once again the preeminent consideration for Kuyper in the 1897 elections. Cooperation with the Roman Catholics was therefore the only correct course of action. In the second article, Kuyper explores what this collaboration should entail. Bearing in mind what he sees as the negative aspects of Roman Catholic political thinking, as well as the common ground between Roman Catholics and antirevolutionaries, Kuyper considered what cooperation between Roman Catholics and antirevolutionaries should entail.
