Reviews

""In this bounteous volume, political theology takes stock of its pasts and of its futures. It reveals itself as a discourse of concepts but also of names. What's in a name? What indeed are the names of political theology? What paleonymy, what onomatology sustain it? What names must it invent, still? Old and new, necessary and unexpected, proper and (un)common--an indispensable nomenclature emerges from each of these rich essays.""--Gil Anidjar, author of ""On the Sovereignty of Mothers: The Political as Maternal"" ""This important volume expands beyond the usual connection between political theology and Christian doctrine, tracking how previously theological concepts continue to morph into various secular guises. The contributors demonstrate that political theology is a powerful resource by which to both recognize and challenge the modalities of politics and social life that are practiced in our own time. The reimagination that the title points to is not so much a way to start political theology all over again but to focus on its subversive and radical potential.""--James R. Martel, author of ""Anarchist Prophets: Disappointing Vision and the Power of Collective Sight""
