Beschreibung:
This volume brings together established and rising scholars to revitalize political theology by examining conceptions of power that work beyond sovereign power. The hope is to reexamine the character of authority by attending to the multiple, various, but often under-appreciated ways that power is exercised in the contemporary world.
