Migrations Of The Holy: Theologies Of State And Church, William Cavanaugh
Migrations Of The Holy: Theologies Of State And Church, William Cavanaugh
William T. Cavanaugh
Whether one thinks that “religion” continues to fade or has made a comeback in the contemporary world, there is a common notion that “religion” went away somewhere, at least in the West. But William Cavanaugh argues that religious fervor never left — it has only migrated toward a new object of worship. In Migrations of the Holy he examines the disconcerting modern transfer of sacred devotion from the church to the nation-state. In these chapters Cavanaugh cautions readers to be wary of a rigid separation of religion and politics that boxes in the church and sends citizens instead to the …
"The Invention Of Fanaticism", William Cavanaugh
"The Invention Of Fanaticism", William Cavanaugh
William T. Cavanaugh
This article examines the Western construction of “religion” as passionate and non-rational. First, it summarizes the history of the category “religion” and the creation of the myth of religious violence. It then examines the construction of one of the stock characters of modernity, the religious fanatic, and shows how fanaticism migrated from an accusation against heretics to an accusation of intolerance, and from an indictment of false prophecy and belief to an indictment of an irrational and violent passion. The article then shows how the construction of “religious fanaticism” can promote secularist rationales for violence.

Pozarci: Gospodarka A Powolanie Chrzescijanskie, William Cavanaugh
Pozarci: Gospodarka A Powolanie Chrzescijanskie, William Cavanaugh
William T. Cavanaugh
Mieć czy być? Czy chrześcijanie powinni opowiadać się za czy przeciw wolnemu rynkowi? Dlaczego konsumpcjonizm ,,pożera" konsumentów? Dlaczego prezesi wielkich firm nie znają umiaru w zwiększaniu własnych wynagrodzeń? Dlaczego związki zawodowe są coraz słabsze? I dlaczego ulega zatarciu różnica między pracownikiem a niewolnikiem? Ta książka odpowiada nie tylko na te pytania. Jest w niej zawarta także potężna dawka teologicznej refleksji nad zagadnieniami takimi jak Bóg, sprawiedliwość, globalizacja i wolność. Nie brak również konkretnych przykładów rozwiązań gospodarczych, spójnych z życiem w Ciele Chrystusa. A takowe już istnieją i - jak wykazuje Autor - funkcjonują z pożytkiem dla ogółu. Tę rozprawę z …
El Mito De La Violencia Religiosa, William Cavanaugh
El Mito De La Violencia Religiosa, William Cavanaugh
William T. Cavanaugh
El mito de la violencia religiosa consiste en creer que la “religión” es un fenómeno endémico de todas las culturas y épocas de la humanidad, separable de otros ámbitos de la actividad del hombre que, como la política o la economía, son calificados de “seculares”. Que es, además, particularmente proclive al absolutismo, la disgregación y la irracionalidad, y por consiguiente a la violencia. Cavanaugh demuestra en esta obra, argumentando a partir de fuentes históricas, teológicas y jurídicas, que la “religión” no es una realidad transcultural y transhistórica ni se puede separar de las demás esferas de la actividad del hombre, …

William T. Cavanaugh
Face à la crise mondiale, l'État se présente à nouveau comme le sauveur qui peut éviter une plus grande catastrophe. "Nous n’attendons pas seulement de l'État qu’il apporte des solutions techniques aux déséquilibres du marché, écrit William Cavanaugh. Nous voulons, dans un sens plus profond, que l'État absorbe le risque lié à notre vie humaine mortelle. Nous voulons, en d’autres termes, que l'État nous aide à tricher avec la mort." La politique moderne n'est pas le crépuscule des dieux : elle présente tous les signes du péché d'idolâtrie, car la garde du sacré a été transférée de l'Église à l'État. …

Le Mythe De La Violence Religieuse, William Cavanaugh
Le Mythe De La Violence Religieuse, William Cavanaugh
William T. Cavanaugh
C’est une idée dominante : la religion promeut la violence car elle est absolutiste, source de divisions et irrationnelle. Mais peut-on séparer la violence « religieuse » de la violence « séculière » ? C’est la question que pose William Cavanaugh dans cet essai magistral publié simultanément aux Presses de l'Université d'Oxford et en France. Au cœur du problème, l'invention d'un concept universel de « religion » accompagnant l'émergence de l'Etat moderne, la marginalisation de l'Église puis la colonisation. L'examen historique des « Guerres de religion »révèle qu'il est impossible d'isoler le facteur religieux de la résistance des élites locales …
The Myth Of Religious Violence: Secular Ideology And The Roots Of Modern Conflict, William Cavanaugh
The Myth Of Religious Violence: Secular Ideology And The Roots Of Modern Conflict, William Cavanaugh
William T. Cavanaugh
The idea that religion has a dangerous tendency to promote violence is part of the conventional wisdom of Western societies, and it underlies many of our institutions and policies, from limits on the public role of religion to efforts to promote liberal democracy in the Middle East. William T. Cavanaugh challenges this conventional wisdom by examining how the twin categories of religion and the secular are constructed. A growing body of scholarly work explores how the category 'religion' has been constructed in the modern West and in colonial contexts according to specific configurations of political power. Cavanaugh draws on this …
Torture Et Eucharistie: La Théologie Politique Et Le Corps Du Christ, William Cavanaugh
Torture Et Eucharistie: La Théologie Politique Et Le Corps Du Christ, William Cavanaugh
William T. Cavanaugh
Théologien nord-américain, W. Cavanaugh a vécu au Chili sous le régime de Pinochet. Il décrit comment les autorités de l’Eglise ont été hésitantes à condamner la naissance des pratiques de torture qui allaient se généraliser. En contraste, il présente ensuite des exemples de résistance chrétienne de la part de responsables ou de militants, dans la visibilité d’un corps social, visibilité mise en rapport, par le théologien, avec la pratique eucharistique chrétienne. C’est l’occasion de méditations ecclésiologiques complexes, mises en rapport avec les oeuvres de Jacques Maritain et de Henri de Lubac. Le livre devient alors d’une lecture difficile, malgré la …

Being Consumed: Economics And Christian Desire, William Cavanaugh
Being Consumed: Economics And Christian Desire, William Cavanaugh
William T. Cavanaugh
Are Christians for or against the free market? Should we not think of ourselves as consumers? Are we for or against globalization? How to we live in a world of scare resources? William Cavanaugh brings us a theological view and practice of everyday economic life with the use of Christian resources. He argues that we should not take the free market, consumer culture, globalization, and scarcity as givens, but change the terms of debate in each case. His consideration of the free market is not a question of for or against, but when exactly a market is truly free. He …
