Herman Dooyeweerd (1894-1977) was a Dutch legal scholar by training, who by vocation was a philosopher, and the founder of a new approach called the philosophy of the cosmonomic idea. Dooyeweerd attempts to provide a philosophy which accounts for not only the differences between one thing and another, but also, between one thinker and another. He shows the remaining need of a consistent and radically Christian philosophy, and proposes his as a model. Following Abraham Kuyper, and other, earlier neo-calvinists, Dooyeweerd claims that all thinking is governed according to fundamental assumptions.
