Reviews

This volume persuasively shows us that political theology does not belong exclusively to authoritarian thinking, but also to its opposite. Those writings in which Benjamin departed from the authoritarian thinking of Schmitt have exercised a deep influence on contemporary political thought, and given the considerable challenges in accessing these texts, the work of these scholars helps to unearth a crucial vocabulary for the critique of authoritarianism in all its forms. * Nathan Ross, Assistant Teaching Professor of Philosophy, Adelphi University, USA * This is an excellent volume of outstanding breadth and depth. The collection assembles contributions by world-leading scholars, yielding a discussion that is both highly sophisticated and approachable. * Yael Almog, Associate Professor in the School of Modern Languages and Cultures, Durham University, UK *
