Recenzii

'This timely anthology is more than just a rounding up of the usual suspects.  Although the indispensable classic texts in political theology are here, they are joined by both classic "secular" political voices and some provocative new contemporary voices who work on the edge of politics and religion.  The editors' introductions and the texts themselves blur the lines between the temporal and the spiritual in helpful ways.  If the world is not simply advancing toward greater secularization, it may be because the "secular" itself is a kind of "religion."  This book is a tremendous resource for exploring such a world.' William T. Cavanaugh, Associate Professor of Theology, University of St. Thomas, Minnesota, USA
"This is a stimulating collection , with good bibliographical pointers, that opens up major questions for readers at every level" Theological Book Review  Vol. 19 No. 1 2007
