RT Article T1 Normative Political Theology as Intensified Critique JF Political theology VO 19 IS 8 SP 669 OP 674 A1 Newheiser, David 1982- LA English YR 2018 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1583933417 AB Some theorists are suspicious of normative political theology because they believe it undermines critical rationality. In my view, these theorists neglect theological traditions that resist dogmatism through intensified critique. Because authoritarian dogma is not unique to religion, theology offers sophisticated techniques that may be useful for those who are not themselves religious. A normative theology that intensifies critique represents a valuable resource for political reflection, and not only for the faithful.
