Article: Ambiguous Messianism: The Political Theology of Martin Buber
Too little on Jewish political theology gets published in English (rather than Hebrew), but here's a short recent piece: David Ohana (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev/Berkeley), "Ambiguous Messianism: The Political Theology of Martin Buber" ("Religion Compass", 5 [1], January 2011: pp. 50-60).
Quote: "In this article I will exmine [sic] the complex attitude of Martin Buber ... to Messianism in the prism of political theology in Israel. Buber's intellectual and scholarly interest in Messianism was ... the very foundation of his thought. His methodical treatment of Messianism encouraged the idea that his dialogic approach to philosophical enquiry was an authentic philosophical method."
