Documenting the History of Religions in the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (1950‒1970)
Author: Valerio Severino
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004459278
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
The present volume offers a new account of the activities of the International Association for the History of Religions during the Cold War. By focusing on the IAHR membership of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1957, the book reconsiders the impact of the Iron Curtain . Valerio Severino examines unpublished international correspondences, bureaucratic requests, confidential reports submitted by the delegates after their participation in congresses in Western Europe and the USA. Facts and insights about leading Hungarian scholars and internal processes of the IAHR are reconstructed in detail. Through doing so, Severino is able to evaluate the permeability of the Iron Curtain, the exchange of knowledge between the opposing blocs, the ideological control exercised through the Academy and the ways in which academics subjected their work to this obligation.

Your Spirits Walk Beside Us

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Even before the emergence of the civil rights movement, African American religion and progressive politics were assumed to be inextricably intertwined. Savage counters this assumption with the story of a highly diversified religious community whose debates over engagement in the struggle for racial equality were as vigorous as they were persistent.

Radical Political Theology
Author: Clayton Crockett
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0231149824
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
In the 1960s, the strict opposition between the religious and the secular began to break down, blurring the distinction between political philosophy and political theology. This collapse contributed to the decline of modern liberalism, which supported a neutral, value-free space for capitalism. It also deeply unsettled political, religious, and philosophical realms, forced to confront the conceptual stakes of a return to religion. Gamely intervening in a contest that defies simple resolutions, Clayton Crockett conceives of the postmodern convergence of the secular and the religious as a basis for emancipatory political thought. Engaging themes of sovereignty, democracy, potentiality, law, and event from a religious and political point of view, Crockett articulates a theological vision that responds to our contemporary world and its theo-political realities. Specifically, he claims we should think about God and the state in terms of potentiality rather than sovereign power. Deploying new concepts, such as Slavoj Zizek's idea of parallax and Catherine Malabou's notion of plasticity, his argument engages with debates over the nature and status of religion, ideology, and messianism. Tangling with the work of Derrida, Deleuze, Spinoza, Antonio Negri, Giorgio Agamben, Alain Badiou, John D. Caputo, and Catherine Keller, Crockett concludes with a reconsideration of democracy as a form of political thought and religious practice, underscoring its ties to modern liberal capitalism while also envisioning a more authentic democracy unconstrained by those ties.

Documents and Objects relative to My Fraudulent Crossings of the State Frontier of the Socialist Republic of Romania

Pages : 362
Book Description
Foreword: “Through this publication, i mainly present in a photographic form and process my dossiers relative to the fraudulent crossing of the state frontier from the time of the Ceauşescu regime of the romanian national communism, namely between 1986 and 1989, in the measure and forms in which i could procure them from the respective judiciaries. The documentary-historical value of the documents is twofold. In the relation of the Ceauşescu regime, they partly mirror the lawful and unlawful activity of the authorities competent in the causes of fraudulent crossing of the state frontier, namely the frontier guards, militia, prosecution and the judiciary. And in the relation of my person, on the one part, they corroborate and supplement the non-fictive character of my four books written about my four illegal fleeing attempts and their penal consequences, on the other part, they corroborate my hypothesis according to which the national secret political organizations pursue not only a national secret policy referred to the “nation”, but also personal secret policies referred to the target persons selected by them.” p.sdfootnote { margin-left: 0.6cm; text-indent: -0.6cm; margin-bottom: 0cm; font-size: 10pt; }p { margin-bottom: 0.21cm; }a.sdfootnoteanc { font-size: 57%; }

War, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God
Author: Murat Iyigun
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226388433
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
In "Conflict, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God," Murat Iyigun explores how longer-term developments influenced the spread of monotheistic religions and how these trends affected other societies and religions. He explores with the statistical methods of economics the way religions shaped the development of societies and framed the conflicts between and within them. Specifically, he asks why and how political power and organized religion became so swiftly and successfully intertwined, and then examines the role of religion in conflict historically, as well as the sociopolitical, demographic, and economic effects of religiously motivated conflicts." Conflict, Peace, and Prosperity in the Name of God "breaks exciting new ground in our understanding of religion and societies, and the conflicts between them."
