Solidarity in a Secular Age

From Political Theology to Jewish Philosophy

Beschreibung

In an age of declining religiosity and rising nationalism, how can we form strong social bonds without racism, demagoguery, and xenophobia? In Solidarity in a Secular Age, Charles H. T. Lesch responds to this question by narrating an untold story of European political theology and spotlighting a neglected strand of modern Jewish philosophy to propose a new theory of liberal-democratic solidarity. Radically revising political theory's relationship to religion, he challenges us to rethink and rebuild our social bond.
