It examines the explosive threats the liberal order confronts today: financial meltdown, religious extremism, environmental catastrophe. Yet, it also seeks to place these - singularly modern - crises within a much longer history. For the contributors to this collection, it is the ancient religious tradition called 'the messianic' that provides the critical lens through which modernity may be interrogated. In its ongoing struggles with the messianic, liberal modernity confronts the promise and threat of a radically new Politics to Come. So what are the Politics to Come? How do they manifest themselves throughout history? Why does the possibility of a messianic judgement continue to haunt the western political imaginary? This collection offers a series of political, philosophical and theological perspectives from which the future of liberal modernity - if it has one - can be imagined."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Continuum Studies in Religion & Political Culture, 3MessiahPhilosophy, ModernPolitical sciencePhilosophyReligion and politicsReligion & politicsElectronic books.Messiah.Philosophy, Modern.Political sciencePhilosophy.Religion and politics.201/.72Bradley ArthurFletcher PaulUtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910456705603321The politics to come1952765UNINA
