Paperback. Condition: New. In an age of distraction, this issue of Plough Quarterly looks at inwardness - how sustainable human community and social activism must be rooted in the spiritual life.How much of your day is spent in reality, and how much in a fake world? We've learned that screen time is bad for you, too much media consumption damages your heart, and Facebook can make you mentally ill. We're aware of the mind-altering power of advertising, the dehumanizing passions of our polarized politics, and the fact that millions of us have learned to multitask while watching footage of refugees drowning.But what are we to do about it? If this fake world is invading our souls, it's in our souls that we must find the cure. Only a return to inwardness can bring distracted moderns back to Jesus and to constructive work for his kingdom.Here activists may object: Isn't it the height of selfishness to retreat into our interior life when we ought to be out saving starving children? Yet Christians through the ages have insisted that inwardness is crucial to the life of discipleship. It's what keeps us from falling for demagogues and false gospels, from wasting life on superficialities, and from ignoring our neighbor. In fact, throughout history it has often been the mystics who were most active in serving others. In true Plough fashion, this issue brings together a colorful cast of examples: from medieval Beguines and Benedictines to Gerard Manley Hopkins, Simone Weil, and Fannie Lou Hamer, to contemporary voices like Robert Cardinal Sarah, Johann Christoph Arnold, and three persecuted Syrian priests. These lives offer us glimpses of the real world from which our fake world seeks to distract us, and can guide us in our own refusal to conform.Also in this issue. Poetry from Gerard Manley Hopkins and Malcolm Guite. Insights on inwardness from Meister Eckhart, Eberhard Arnold, Marguerite Porete, Simone Weil, and Isaac Penington. A forum on the Benedict Option with Rod Dreher, Ross Douthat, Jacqueline C. Rivers, and Randall Gauger.

Cutter, John August Swanson, Vittorio Matteo Corcos, and Leon DaboPlough Quarterly features stories, ideas, and culture for people eager to put their faith into action.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Fachbuch aus dem Jahr 2000 im Fachbereich Politik - Politische Theorie und Ideengeschichte, Note: 1, Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn (Seminar für Politische Wissenschaft), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: InhaltsangabeEric Voegelin glaubte, dass eine moralisch akzeptable und langfristig erfolgreiche (und das hieß für den Emigranten Voegelin vor allem: totalitarismusresistente) politische Ordnung nur auf Grundlage einer gesunden Religiosität der Bürger und insbesondere des politischen Führungspersonals errichtet werden kann. Der Frage, wie eine gesunde Religiosität bzw. ein gesundes Transzendenzbewusstein beschaffen sein muss, versuchte Voegelin sowohl durch geistesgeschichtliche als auch durch bewusstseinsphilosophische Untersuchungen nachzuspüren. In diesem Buch wird die Bewusstseinsphilsophie Voegelins und die sich darauf gründende politische Ordnungsvorstellung einer eingehenden Kritik unterzogen. Im Ergebnis führt dies zu einer Absage an die Politische Theologie Voegelinscher oder auch anderer Prägung und einem entschiedenen Plädoyer für die Trennung von Religion und Politik.Über den Autor:Eckhart Arnold (Jahrgang 1972) hat in Bonn Politische Wissenschaften, Öffentliches Recht und Philosophie studiert. Nach seinem Magisterabschluss im Jahr 2000 hat er zunächst für mehrere Jahre an der Erfurt School of Public Policy in der '`Entwicklung multimedialer Lehrmethoden im Bereich Public Policy'' gearbeitet. Anschließend war er als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Lehrstuhl für Theoretische Philosophie in Düsseldorf tätig, wo er vor kurzem seine Dissertation zu dem Thema '`Explaining Altruism. A Simulation-Based Approach and its Limits'' fertig gestellt hat. Seit Oktober 2007 ist er wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter an der Universität Bayreuth im Studiengang '`Philosophy and Economics''.English Summary: Eric Voegelin believed that a morally acceptable and in the long run successful political order (which meant for the emigrant Voegelin primarily an order that is resistant to totalitarianism) can only be built on the foundation of a healthy religiosity of the citizens and the political leaders. The question of what a healthy religiosity or a healthy consciousness of the transcendent is was examined by Voegelin by recurring to intellectual history and to the philosophy of consciousness. In this book a detailed criticism not only of Voegelin's philosophy of consciousness but also of the concept of political order based on this philosophy is given. This criticism results in a rejection of any political theology of a Voegelinian or other brand and a resolute defense of the separation of religion and politics. …
