El retorno antimoderno. Mito y teología política en tiempos postseculares

Abstract

“El retorno antimoderno. Mito y teología política en tiempos postseculares” (Ángel Octavio Álvarez Solís). The main argument of this essay highlights the political importance of the myths regarding the formation of the modern debate around secularization, especially the role that political myths and theologies play in the configuration of the modernity. The essay is divided in three parts. The first one supports that the political myth constitutes the blind point of modernity; the second one emphasizes why it is impossible to explain secularization without the help of politic theology, and the third one describes the return of theological thought in the current debates on secularization.
