Book: Radical Political Theology: Religion and Politics after Liberalism
A book, it would appear, on the inherently anti-liberal nature of political theologies: Clayton Crockett (University of Central Arkansas), "Radical Political Theology: Religion and Politics after Liberalism" (Columbia University Press, January 2011).
Quote: "Clayton Crockett conceives of the postmodern convergence of the secular and the religious as a basis for emancipatory political thought. Engaging themes of sovereignty, democracy, potentiality, law, and event from a religious and political point of view, Crockett articulates a theological vision that responds to our contemporary world and its theo-political realities. Specifically, he claims we should think about God and the state in terms of potentiality rather than sovereign power."
