By approaching the issues of power, coercion, and oppression through a theological lens, author Davor Džalto seeks to elevate human freedom as a fundamental theological principle within Christianity. This transformative principle empowers a fresh reevaluation of the challenges and complexities of democracy and justice in the age of global (neoliberal) capitalism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this groundbreaking work, Džalto challenges the traditional understanding of power and authority, arguing that they are not inherently negative forces but rather tools that can be used for either constructive or destructive purposes. He emphasizes the importance of personal responsibility and self-discipline in navigating the complex dynamics of power and oppression, urging individuals to embrace their freedom and exercise their agency in shaping the world around them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough a theological lens, Džalto explores the concept of the Kingdom of God as a utopian ideal that seeks to establish a just and harmonious society where human freedom and dignity are upheld. He argues that the Kingdom of God is not a distant future reality but a present reality that can be realized through the collective efforts of individuals and communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDžalto's work is a powerful testament to the interconnectedness of faith, politics, and society, demonstrating how a theological perspective can provide a framework for understanding and addressing the most pressing social and political issues of our time. By reclaiming the concept of \"anarchism\" from a purely political standpoint and embracing it as a theological principle, Džalto offers a fresh and transformative perspective on the pursuit of justice and human freedom in the modern world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780823294381\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Davor Dzalto","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44095657378042,"sku":"9780823294381","price":98.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646156337190_book.jpg?v=1646913371","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/anarchy-and-the-kingdom-of-god-from-eschatology-to-orthodox-political-theology-and-back-9780823294381","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
