Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in the intense political and intellectual tumult of the early years of the Weimar Republic, Political Theology develops the distinctive theory of sovereignty that made Carl Schmitt one of the most significant and controversial political theorists of the twentieth century. Focusing on the relationships among political leadership, the norms of the legal order, and the state of political emergency, Schmitt argues in Political Theology that legal order ultimately rests upon the decisions of the sovereign. According to Schmitt, only the sovereign can meet the needs of an "exceptional" time and transcend legal order so that order can then be reestablished. Convinced that the state is governed by the ever-present possibility of conflict, Schmitt theorizes that the state exists only to maintain its integrity in order to ensure order and stability. Suggesting that all concepts of modern political thought are secularized theological concepts, Schmitt concludes Political Theology with a critique of liberalism and its attempt to depoliticize political thought by avoiding fundamental political decisions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der Band thematisiert den polymorphen Begriff der Politischen Theologie, der wie kein anderer dazu geeignet ist, die sogar unter den Voraussetzungen der Säkularisierung ungebrochene Verbindung von Religion und Politik zu konzeptionalisieren. Zugleich ermöglicht er es, die genuin politische Bedeutung religiöser Identitäten unabhängig von konkreten theologischen Wahrheitsansprüchen zu erfassen. Die in dieser Aufsatzedition versammelten Beiträge diskutieren sowohl die ideengeschichtlichen Entwicklungen, die der Umstrittenheit der Politischen Theologie vorausgingen, als auch einige Besonderheiten der festzustellenden politisch-theologischen Sequenzen im Christentum und im Islam. Dadurch wird schließlich auch verständlich, weshalb der untrennbare Zusammenhang zwischen Religion und Politik in säkularen Gesellschaften in erhöhtem Maße erklärungsbedürftig und legitimierungspflichtig wird.

Book excerpt: Modern, liberal democracies in the West living under the rule of law and protection of human rights cannot articulate the very values from which they derive their legitimacy. These pre-political and pre-legal preconditions cannot be guaranteed, let alone be enforced by the state, but constitute nevertheless its moral and spiritual infrastructure. Until recently, a common background and horizon consisted in Christianity, but due to secularisation and globalisation, society has become increasingly multicultural and multireligious. The question can and should be raised how religion relates to these sources of normative order in society, how religion, politics and law relate to each other, and how social cohesion can be attained in society, given the growing varieties of religious experiences. In this book, a philosophical account of this question is carried out, on the one hand historically from Plato to the Enlightenment, on the other hand systematically and practically.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ernst Bloch and His Contemporaries is a much needed concise yet comprehensive overview of Ernst Bloch's early and later thought. It fills an important gap in research on the history of German thought in the 20th century by reconstructing the contexts of Bloch's philosophy, while focusing on his contemporaries - Georg Lukács, Walter Benjamin, and Theodor Adorno. Ernst Bloch's influential ideas include his theory of utopian consciousness, his resolute inclination to merge aesthetics and politics, rehabilitation of hope, and atheistic conception of Christianity. Although Bloch's major early texts, Spirit of Utopia and Traces, have recently been translated into English, and there has been renewed interest in Bloch over the last 15 years, he is still relatively unknown compared to other left German-Jewish intellectuals. Ivan Boldyrev places Bloch's often enigmatic prose within contexts more familiar to English-speaking readers, and outlines the most important messages in Bloch's legacy still relevant today to European intellectual discourse, in particular aesthetics and philosophy of history.

This book was released on 2019-03-09 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die vorliegende Untersuchung präsentiert eine umfassende Analyse der politisch-ethischen Schriften Karl Barths, Helmut Gollwitzers und Jürgen Moltmanns, indem sie ihre theologischen Diskurse vor dem Hintergrund des politischen Zeitgeschehens differenziert beleuchtet. Trotz ihrer politisch-hermeneutischen Unterschiede kommen die politischen Theologien von Barth, Gollwitzer und Moltmann in Bezug auf politisches Engagement von Christen zu einem gemeinsamen Schluss, dass sich die Christen für sozial Schwache und Unterdrückte politisch engagieren sollen. Ihr politisches Engagement zielt vor allem auf die radikale Veränderung der bestehenden Gesellschaftsordnung, durch die die sozial Schwachen und die politisch Unterdrückten benachteiligt sind. Es steht einer Politisierung der Kirche entgegen, die die Erhaltung des Privilegiensystems und die Interessen der privilegierten Schicht zum Ziel hat. Es lässt sich mit zwei Begriffen charakterisieren: Widerstand gegen totalitäre Systeme und Umwälzungder bestehenden sozialen Ordnungen. Das Buch wendet sich an Dozenten und Studierende der evangelischen und ökumenischen Theologie sowie der Religionsphilosphie mit Schwerpunkt Verhältnis von Christentum und Politik in der spätkapitalistischen Gesellschaft.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The 'return of religion' in the public sphere and the emergence of post-secular societies have propelled the discourse of political theology into the centre of contemporary democratic theory. This situation calls forth the question addressed in this book: Is a democratic political theology possible? Carl Schmitt first developed the idea of the Christian theological foundations of modern legal and political concepts in order to criticize the secular basis of liberal democracy. He employed political theology to argue for the continued legitimacy of the absolute sovereignty of the state against the claims raised by pluralist and globalized civil society. This book shows how, after Schmitt, some of the main political theorists of the 20th century, from Jacques Maritain to Jèurgen Habermas, sought to establish an affirmative connection between Christian political theology, popular sovereignty and the legitimacy of democratic government. In so doing, the political representation of God in the world was no longer placed in the hands of hierarchical and sovereign lieutenants (Church, Empire, Nation), but in a series of democratic institutions, practices and conceptions like direct representation, constitutionalism, universal human rights, and public reason that reject the primacy of sovereignty"--

Book excerpt: The most comprehensive scholarly survey of Karl Barth’s theology ever published Karl Barth, arguably the most influential theologian of the 20th century, is widely considered one of the greatest thinkers within the history of the Christian tradition.

This groundbreaking work: Places Barth into context with major figures in the history of Christian thought, presenting a critical dialogue between them Features contributions from a diverse team of scholars, each of whom are experts in the subject Provides new readers of Barth with an introduction to the most important questions, themes, and ideas in Barth’s work Offers experienced readers fresh insights and interpretations that enrich their scholarship Edited by established scholars with expertise on Barth’s life, his theology, and his significance in Christian tradition An important contribution to the field of Barth scholarship, the Wiley Blackwell Companion to Karl Barth is an indispensable resource for scholars and students interested in the work of Karl Barth, modern theology, or systematic theology.

Book excerpt: In the face of globalized ecological and economic crises, how do religion, the postsecular, and political theology reconfigure political theory and practice? As the planet warms and the chasm widens between the 1 percent and the global 99, what thinking may yet energize new alliances between religious and irreligious constituencies? This book brings together political theorists, philosophers, theologians, and scholars of religion to open discursive and material spaces in which to shape a vibrant planetary commons. Attentive to the universalizing tendencies of “the common,” the contributors seek to reappropriate the term in response to the corporate logic that asserts itself as a universal solvent. In the resulting conversation, the common returns as an interlinked manifold, under the ethos of its multitudes and the ecology of its multiplicity. Beginning from what William Connolly calls the palpable “fragility of things,” Common Goods assembles a transdisciplinary political theology of the Earth. With a nuance missing from both atheist and orthodox religious approaches, the contributors engage in a multivocal conversation about sovereignty, capital, ecology, and civil society. The result is an unprecedented thematic assemblage of cosmopolitics and religious diversity; of utopian space and the time of insurrection; of Christian socialism, radical democracy, and disability theory; of quantum entanglement and planetarity; of theology fleshly and political.

Book excerpt: Der christliche Glaube ist durch und durch politisch: Er ist gemeinschaftsbegrundend und von Anbeginn - in allerdings nicht ganz unproblematischer Weise - auf die politische weltliche Gegenwart bezogen. In der Politischen Theologie des Christentums stellen sich zwei Fragen: Die erste Frage befasst sich mit der Gemeinschaft der Glaubigen, mit den Strukturen und der Verfassung der Kirche. Die zweite Frage umgreift nicht bloss das Verhaltnis zwischen dem von Jesus angekundigten Reich Gottes und den gegenwartigen Reichen dieser Welt, sondern darauf aufbauend das Verhaltnis von geistlicher Autoritat und weltlicher Macht. Hier geht es also nicht nur um die theologischen Begrundungen, sondern auch um das konkrete Verhaltnis von Kirche und Staat.. In einem grossen historischen Durchgang von den Evangelisten bis zur spatmodernen Theologie wird die Entwicklung dieser umfassenden Politischen Theologie allgemeinverstandlich dargestellt. Dabei wird ein besonderes Augenmerk auf die Reformation, ihre Voraussetzungen und ihre Konsequenzen gerichtet. Armin Adam, Jahrgang 1960, studierte Germanistik, Romanistik und Politische Wissenschaft an verschiedenen Universitaten und ist Privatdozent fur Politische Philosophie an der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen.

This book was released on 2014-04-09 with total page 589 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious Propaganda is a pivotal concept for the Hellenistic and Roman epochs in the History of Religions. The term refers to the various competing religious and philosophical movements and currents during those periods. Renowned scholars (H. Attridge, K. Baltzer, J. Collins, A. Dewey, H. Koester, A.T. Kraabel, D. Lührmann, J. Robinson, W. Schottroff, E. Schüssler Fiorenza, A. Yarbro Collins and others) interpret Pagan, Jewish, and Christian sources with a view toward elucidating the confrontation of Jewish and Christian groups with their respective social, economic, religious, and political contexts. The authors seek to demonstrate the significance of missionary and propagandistic themes as well as strategies for the self-understanding of Jews and Christians at the turn of the eras. The articles, 25 in all, draw upon the broad expanse of scholarly work in the History of Religions pertaining to this period: the authors discuss methodology and the state of research, and they forge ahead in the exploration of the intertestamental and New Testament writings.

Download or read book Political Extremes written by Uwe Backes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-12-16 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Western tradition of the constitutional state, with its ancient roots, defines political extremes as the epitome of that what must be absolutely rejected. It highlights tyranny, despotism, despotic rule, non-autonomy, ruthless enforcing of interests as ‘extreme’, contrasting this to a virtuous mean which guarantees moderation. In this volume, the culmination of twenty years of extensive research, Uwe Backes provides a conceptual history of the notions "extreme" and "extremism" from antiquity to the present day. The terminological history of political extremes had been related for more then two millennia with the term mesotês used in the Aristotelian ethics and the theory of mixed constitution. Both doctrines influenced the republicanism of the North Italian city states and later the United States of America as well as British parliamentarism. The positions of moderation and extremes were not joined until the course of the French Revolution with the distinction of right- and left-wing, and this is how it still exists today in the intellectual-political geography. This unique source based study reconstructs these developments from ancient times to the present. Tracing the history of the concept of political extremism from Ancient Greece to the present day, this is an invaluable resource for scholars of democracy, extremism and political sociology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Politics of Imagination offers a multidisciplinary perspective on the contemporary relationship between politics and the imagination. What role does our capacity to form images play in politics? And can we define politics as a struggle for people’s imagination? As a result of the increasingly central place of the media in our lives, the political role of imagination has undergone a massive quantitative and a qualitative change. As such, there has been a revival of interest in the concept of imagination, as the intimate connections between our capacity to form images and politics becomes more and more evident. Bringing together scholars from different disciplines and theoretical outlooks, The Politics of Imagination examines how the power of imagination reverberates in the various ambits of social and political life: in law, history, art, gender, economy, religion and the natural sciences. And it will be of considerable interest to those with contemporary interests in philosophy, political philosophy, political science, legal theory, gender studies, sociology, nationalism, identity studies, cultural studies, and media studies.
