In the U.S., of course, Republican leaders regularly drop by the White House to argue with Jimmy Carter. But in France, the opposition has traditionally been treated with about as much regard as a gallon jug of Manischewitz wine. Indeed, the meeting between Mitterrand and Giscard was the first encounter between a key opposition leader and an elected President since the founding of the Fifth Republic...

Besides Cox, the task force included Black Theologian Preston Williams of Harvard, a Chicane theologian from California, a local pastor laden with preliminary documents for the World Council of Churches assembly, and Social Ethicist Max Stackhouse of Andover Newton Theological School, who edited...
