Book The Oxford Handbook of Carl Schmitt

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Carl Schmitt written by Jens Meierhenrich and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Carl Schmitt collects thirty original chapters on the diverse oeuvre of one of the most controversial thinkers of the twentieth century. Carl Schmitt (1888-1985) was a German theorist whose anti-liberalism continues to inspire scholars and practitioners on both the Left and the Right. Despite Schmitt's rabid anti-semitism and partisan legal practice in Nazi Germany, the appeal of his trenchant critiques of, among other things, aestheticism, representative democracy, and international law as well as of his theoretical justifications of dictatorship and rule by exception is undiminished. Uniquely located at the intersection of law, the social sciences, and the humanities, this volume brings together sophisticated yet accessible interpretations of Schmitt's sprawling thought and complicated biography. The contributors hail from diverse disciplines, including art, law, literature, philosophy, political science, and history. In addition to opening up exciting new avenues of research, The Oxford Handbook of Carl Schmitt provides the intellectual foundations for an improved understanding of the political, legal, and cultural thought of this most infamous of German theorists. A substantial introduction places the trinity of Schmitt's thought in a broad context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HauptbeschreibungCarl Schmitt und besonders sein politisches Denken sind nach wie vor umstritten. Dies ist auf Grund seiner Verstrickungen in den Nationalsozialismus verstnndlich. Gleichwohl finden sich Ansntze, die auch heute noch aktuell und bedenkenswert sind. Hierzu znhlen seine Ausfhrungen ber den Ausnahmezustand, seine Unterscheidung von kommissarischer und souvernner Diktatur, seine Analysen des europnischen VAlkerrechts sowie seine Kritik an einem einseitigen Wertdenken.Andreas Heuer versucht in der vorliegenden Studie, Schmitts Denken zu rekonstruieren, wobei dessen Texte selber zur Sprache kommen. Die Ausfhrungen kreisen um die zentralen Punkte, die Schmitt in einen grAeren historischen Kontext einbettet: den der europnischen Moderne, welche er ganz spezifisch in Ablehnung zu einer sich entwickelnden Welt-Moderne deutete. Es ist das Ziel der Untersuchung, diesen Deutungszusammenhang offenzulegen und zu einer kritischen Reflexion eigener Vorstellungen ber Europa, Moderne, europnische Moderne, Welt-Moderne, VAlkerrecht anzuregen.aInhaltsverzeichnisInhaltsbersicht: A.

Book Volume 10  Tome I  Kierkegaard s Influence on Theology

Download or read book Volume 10 Tome I Kierkegaard s Influence on Theology written by Jon Stewart and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kierkegaard has always enjoyed a rich reception in the fields of theology and religious studies. This reception might seem obvious given that he is one of the most important Christian writers of the nineteenth century, but Kierkegaard was by no means a straightforward theologian in any traditional sense. He had no enduring interest in some of the main fields of theology such as church history or biblical studies, and he was strikingly silent on many key Christian dogmas. Moreover, he harbored a degree of animosity towards the university theologians and churchmen of his own day. Despite this, he has been a source of inspiration for numerous religious writers from different denominations and traditions. Tome I is dedicated to the reception of Kierkegaard among German Protestant theologians and religious thinkers. The writings of some of these figures turned out to be instrumental for Kierkegaard's breakthrough internationally shortly after the turn of the twentieth century. Leading figures of the movement of 'dialectical theology' such as Karl Barth, Emil Brunner, Paul Tillich and Rudolf Bultmann spawned a steadily growing awareness of and interest in Kierkegaard's thought among generations of German theology students. Emanuel Hirsch was greatly influenced by Kierkegaard and proved instrumental in disseminating his thought by producing the first complete German edition of Kierkegaard's published works. Both Barth and Hirsch established unique ways of reading and appropriating Kierkegaard, which to a certain degree determined the direction and course of Kierkegaard studies right up to our own times.

Book Politische Theologie bei Karl Barth  Helmut Gollwitzer und J  rgen Moltmann

Download or read book Politische Theologie bei Karl Barth Helmut Gollwitzer und J rgen Moltmann written by Sungchole Park and published by Springer-Verlag. This book was released on 2019-03-09 with total page 277 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 Umwälzung der 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.

Book Interpretationen einer gemeinsamen Welt  Von der Antike bis zur Moderne  Festschrift f  r Jure Zovko

Download or read book Interpretationen einer gemeinsamen Welt Von der Antike bis zur Moderne Festschrift f r Jure Zovko written by Evandro Agazzi and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die zweiundzwanzig Autorinnen und Autoren entfalten in ihren – dem kroatischen Philosophen Jure Zovko gewidmeten - Beiträgen zur Philosophie der Antike, des Deutschen Idealismus und des 20. Jahrhunderts, sowie zur Hermeneutik, zur Erkenntnis- und Wissenschaftstheorie, zur Metaphysik und zur Religionsphilosophie die Philosophie als Interpretation einer gemeinsamen Welt. Dabei wird deutlich: die Philosophie bleibt auch in der Vielfalt ihrer Stimmen letztlich immer Eine, wie auch die Welt als Bezugspunkt menschlichen Handelns und Denkens nur eine ist, die wir miteinander teilen und die wir zu erkennen und zu erhalten haben. In their contributions - dedicated to the Croatian philosopher Jure Zovko - on the philosophy of antiquity, German Idealism and the 20th century, as well as on hermeneutics, the theory of knowledge and science, metaphysics and the philosophy of religion, the twenty-two authors unfold philosophy as the interpretation of a common world. In the process, it becomes clear that philosophy, even in the diversity of its voices, ultimately always remains one, just as the world as a point of reference for human action and thought is only one, which we share with each other and which we have to recognise and preserve.

Book J  rgen Moltmann

Download or read book J rgen Moltmann written by James L. Wakefield and published by Atla Bibliography. This book was released on 2002 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "...true theologians are more than good religious managers, for their hearts must be in what they are doing. Without personal authenticity, no one will believe in the truth of their message."- Jürgen Moltmann, from his lecture What is a Theologian? at the Pontifical University, Maynooth, Ireland (1998). Jürgen Moltmann was born into a secular family of teachers in Hamburg in 1926. His plans to study mathematics and physics were interrupted by the destruction of Hamburg in July of 1943. He was one of only a few students serving in the anti-aircraft battery in the central city that survived the Royal Air Force "fire storm" that killed over 40,000. He spent the next three years as a prisoner of war in labor camps in Belgium and Scotland, and finally at Camp Norton near Nottingham in England. After devouring every book that crossed his path during captivity, he eventually turned to reading the psalms and New Testament. These writings soothed his experiences with death, his depression and his guilt, and ushered along his theology, his belief in God and the power of hope. Jürgen Moltmann's work sprung from the social and political turmoil in post World War II German culture. In this Bibliography, the author lists more than twelve hundred sources from Jürgen Moltmann and more than eight hundred significant reviews, articles, and books on his work. He has also included most of the theologian's early writings in either German or English through the year 2001. Besides a foreword and essay by Moltmann, this volume includes a bibliographic biography of his life. Most of his works are listed by title and first place of publication. Also listed are later versions and many of the translations. Translations of Moltmann's major books (in as many European languages as possible) as well as a list of known dissertations and monographs, presented in reverse chronological order for the reader's convenience, make for a well-rounded work. A research index helps the reader find the major pieces for some of Moltmann'

Book excerpt: In this volume illustrious liberation theologians succinctly map the liberation terrain for the new century. Writing from a variety of standpoints - the African American community, feminist struggles, and social locations in Europe, North America, and Latin America - these leading thinkers reflect on the vastly changed context of and challenges to liberation.

Book The Catholic Church and Liberal Democracy

Download or read book The Catholic Church and Liberal Democracy written by Bernt Torvild Oftestad and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-19 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roman Catholic Church's critical stance towards liberalism and democracy following the French Revolution and through the 19th century was often entrenched, but the Second Vatican Council of the 1960s saw a shift in the Church's attitude towards democracy. In recent years, a conflict has emerged between Church doctrine and modern liberalism under Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI. This book is a comprehensive overview of the Catholic Church's relationship to modern liberal democracy, from the end of the 18th century until today. It is a connection that is situated within the context of the history of ideas itself.

Book Genealogies of the Secular

Download or read book Genealogies of the Secular written by Willem Styfhals and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents a historical and philosophical overview of the twentieth-century German debates on secularization, and their significance for contemporary discussions about the relationship between theology and modernity. While the concept of secularization is traditionally used to define the nature of modern culture, and sometimes to uncover the theological origins of secular modernity, its validity is being questioned ever more radically today. Genealogies of the Secular returns to the historical, intellectual, and philosophical roots of this concept in the twentieth-century German debates on religion and modernity, and presents a wide range of strategies that German thinkers have applied to apprehend the connection between religion and secularism. In fundamentally heterogeneous ways, these strategies all developed “genealogies of the secular” by tracing modern phenomena back to their religious or theological roots. This book aims to disclose the complex prehistory of the contemporary debates on political theology and postsecularism, and to show how prominent thinkers continue this German tradition today. It explores and assesses the classic theories of secularization that are epitomized in Carl Schmitt’s writings on political theology, but also addresses German philosophers whose work has been rarely associated with secularization, including Walter Benjamin, Ernst Cassirer, Martin Heidegger, Immanuel Kant, and Hannah Arendt. Attention is also paid to two thinkers whose role in these discourses has not been fully explored yet: Jacob Taubes and Jan Assmann. By introducing their thinking on religion, politics, and secularization, the book also makes two of their own key texts available to an English-language readership. “What makes the book so valuable pedagogically is the clarity and scope of its synthetic gestures about the dense questions congealing around the topic of secularization. It offers a pronouncement of central significance, emerging from some of the most important contemporary voices in these fields. The scholarship is internationally informed and engaged, even as it feels vibrant, immediate, and agenda setting.” — Ward Blanton, University of Kent, Canterbury

Book Professor of Apocalypse

Download or read book Professor of Apocalypse written by Jerry Z. Muller and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-24 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The controversial Jewish thinker whose tortured path led him into the heart of twentieth-century intellectual life Scion of a distinguished line of Talmudic scholars, Jacob Taubes (1923–1987) was an intellectual impresario whose inner restlessness led him from prewar Vienna to Zurich, Israel, and Cold War Berlin. Regarded by some as a genius, by others as a charlatan, Taubes moved among yeshivas, monasteries, and leading academic institutions on three continents. He wandered between Judaism and Christianity, left and right, piety and transgression. Along the way, he interacted with many of the leading minds of the age, from Leo Strauss and Gershom Scholem to Herbert Marcuse, Susan Sontag, and Carl Schmitt. Professor of Apocalypse is the definitive biography of this enigmatic figure and a vibrant mosaic of twentieth-century intellectual life. Jerry Muller shows how Taubes’s personal tensions mirrored broader conflicts between religious belief and scholarship, allegiance to Jewish origins and the urge to escape them, tradition and radicalism, and religion and politics. He traces Taubes’s emergence as a prominent interpreter of the Apostle Paul, influencing generations of scholars, and how his journey led him from crisis theology to the Frankfurt School, and from a radical Hasidic sect in Jerusalem to the center of academic debates over Gnosticism, secularization, and the revolutionary potential of apocalypticism. Professor of Apocalypse offers an unforgettable account of an electrifying world of ideas, focused on a charismatic personality who thrived on controversy and conflict.

Book Politische Theologie  Zur Politischen Ethik von J  rgen Moltmann

Download or read book Politische Theologie Zur Politischen Ethik von J rgen Moltmann written by Ann Chef and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2017 im Fachbereich Theologie - Praktische Theologie, Note: 2.0, Christian-Albrechts-Universität Kiel, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Theologie steht vor der Herausforderung, der Neuzeit und ihrer Realität gerecht zu werden sowie dem Menschen auch im politischen Kontext eine Orientierung zu bieten, ohne jedoch dabei religiöse Politik zu führen oder allein eine Ethik für Christen zu entwerfen. Jürgen Moltmann hat sich der Konzeption der Politischen Ethik angenommen und diese in seinem Buch „Politische Theologie – Politische Ethik“ durchdacht und in Relation zu den theologischen Konzepten Luthers und Barths gestellt. Die Politische Ethik ist nicht nur eine Ethik für Christen, sondern stellt eine christliche Ethik für Staat und Politik dar, wobei diese das politische Bewusstsein der Christen wecken möchte. Die Entstehung der Politischen Ethik lässt sich auf die theologische und praktische Unzufriedenheit in Deutschland zurückführen und ist deshalb eine gesellschaftskritische politische Theologie. Unter den Bedingungen der Neuzeit rückt in der Politischen Theologie die Kritik der sozialen und politischen Funktion der Kirche in den Mittelpunkt. Das Standardwerk zum Thema „Politische Ethik“ ist nach wie vor das Buch von Jürgen Moltmann, in dem der Autor die Notwendigkeit des politischen Bewusstseins der christlichen Theologie herausstellt und zu den Konzeptionen christlicher Ethik die Politische Ethik in Relation stellt. Dieser Originaltext bildet deshalb auch die Grundlage dieser Arbeit, da die Sekundärliteratur sich auf das Buch Moltmanns stützt. Im ersten Teil werden ich die Politische Ethik Moltmanns in die Geschichte der Ethik einordnen, indem die Zwei-Reiche-Lehre Luthers und die Königsherrschaft-Christi-Lehre von Karl Barth erläutert werden und welche Ansatzpunkte diese für Moltmann bieten, dass er die politische Relevanz einer Theologie der Hoffnung hervorhebt und welche Kritikpunkte Moltmann jeweils an beiden theologischen Konzeptionen äußert, sodass er seine Politische Ethik entwirft. Darauf aufbauend werde ich im zweiten die Politische Ethik Moltmanns darstellen. Zum Schluss erfolgt eine kritische Reflexion.
