Political Theology of Life Book PDF Summary
Taking up the work of Meister Eckhart, F. W. J. von Schelling, and Søren Kierkegaard, Political Theology of Life formulates the task of an unconditional affirmation of life. Such a political theology consists of constructing a kenotic eschatology, which puts into question any political attempt to justify and legitimize any world-historical hegemony on a theological foundation. The work thereby argues that in today’s neoliberal-secular world of narcissistic mass-consumption in the age of extreme capitalism, such an affirmation of life—released from the grasp of sovereign power—is the highest ethico-religious task of our time. The work shows that each of these thinkers—Meister Eckhart at the epochal closure of the medieval world, and Schelling and Kierkegaard from the heart of the epochal condition of modernity—has exposed open a dimension of infinitude and manifestation that can be truly inspiring for us; that is to say, in the abandonment of all worldly attributes lies a receptivity to the highest gift of beatitude, an opening to the infinitude that sanctifies our worldly existence, which is a radical gift arriving from an origin without origin and without foundation, a gift that does not have to be anchored in the nomothetic operation of worldly hegemonies.
