The Faith of the Faithless: Experiments in Political Theology

Autor Simon Critchley
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 feb 2014
Why do we still have religion? It seems to offer nothing but violence, suppression and conflict. Discussing the relationship between religion and politics, exploring questions of faith, love, human nature and original sin, Simon Critchley asks whether we can establish a faith for the faithless and how it can manifest itself in everyday life, from the identity of love to the role of violence.
