Object of Study and Thesis The following study is an analysis of the philosophical-anthropological foundations underlying the jurist Carl Schmitt’s thought. More specifically, it will argue that Schmitt’s thought eXhibits a constant interaction with and orientation towards what this study will call his concept of the human. Against the general tendency of scholarship to read Schmitt’s anthropology as mere pessimism, this study wants to suggest that Schmitt’s concept of the human designates an ambivalent middle position, characterized by a particularly “human”, rationality. By focusing on this middle position this study will, firstly, attempt to counteract the idea that Schmitt’s anthropology can be reduced to the pessimism of his “anthropological confession” and, secondly, do so by revealing the way in which this position of the human underlies

Tom's Perspectives by Thomas Ice Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, —2 Thessalonians 2:3 I believe that there is a strong possibility that 2 Thessalonians 2:3 is speaking of the rapture. What do I mean? Some pretribulationists, like myself, think that the Greek noun apostasia, usually translated “apostasy,” is a reference to the rapture and should be translated “departure.” Thus, this passage would be saying that the day of the Lord will not come until the rapture comes before it. If apostasia is a reference to a physical departure, then 2 Thessalonians 2:3 is strong evidence for pretribulationism. THE MEANING OF APOSTASIA The Greek noun apostasia is only used twice in the New Testament. In addition to 2 Thessalonians

  • Relationship Between the Restrainer and the Holy Spirit (An Identity Inquisition Into 2 Thessalonians2:7)
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 24, Issue 4, Ser. 3 (April. 2019) 18-25 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Relationship between the Restrainer and the Holy Spirit (An Identity inquisition into 2 Thessalonians2:7) UkomaA. N. (PhD, MA. BA, Dip.Th) Department of Philosophy & Religion Ebonyi State University Abakaliki, Corresponding Author: UkomaA. N ABSTRACT: The word „Restrainer‟ derived from the Greek word „katechon‟ or „katechōn‟ has the potency to put the upsurge of immorality on hold in the contemporary society according to Apostle Paul. Of course, Paul says that His presence on earth gives man breathing space relative to full blown moral decadence that will be occasioned by the son of perdition in the last days. Accordingly, the contemporary society is like a bubble that is waiting to burst; in the face of moral decadence that has permeated into its fibbers. For Paul, the comprehensiveness of such evil days will manifest as part of eschatological events. Of course, the removal of the Restrainer from the way of the son of perdition will expose the full control of the Devil. This obstructer had since been interpreted variously among scholars. Some do not know who or what is meant, while others stir middle course on the matter. This vagary of opinions a problem facing the Church calls for the establishment of the proper personification of the concept. Conclusions in this research were derived from related literature, journal articles and oral participatory interviews that were analysed in the contextual light of Pauline postulation in his second epistle to the Thessalonians.

  • Katechon and Crisis in De Maistre, Donoso, and Schmitt
    The Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence Vol. IV, Issue 1/2020 © The Authors 2020 Available online at http://trivent-publishing.eu/ Counterrevolutionary Polemics: Katechon and Crisis in de Maistre, Donoso, and Schmitt M. Blake Wilson Department of Criminal Justice, California State University, Stanislaus, USA Abstract: For the theorists of crisis, the revolutionary state comes into existence through violence, and due to its inability to provide an authoritative katechon (restrainer) against internal and external violence, it perpetuates violence until it self-destructs. Writing during extreme economic depression and growing social and political violence, the crisis theorists––Joseph de Maistre, Juan Donoso Cortés, and Carl Schmitt––each sought to blame the chaos of their time upon the Janus-faced post- revolutionary ideals of liberalism and socialism by urging a return to pre-revolutionary moral and religious values. They are united by three counterrevolutionary principles, all of which are purported to remedy revolutionary violence: traditional constitutional fidelity, the philosophy of the decision, and opposition to bourgeois liberalism. This essay is followed by the first complete English translation and publication of Donoso’s letter of October 24, 1851, which contains Donoso’s only reference to the “discussing class,” a political entity later popularized by Schmitt in his 1922 work Political Theology. Keywords: Carl Schmitt; Revolution; Counterrevolution; Katechon; Political Romanticism; Constitutionalism; Joseph de Maistre; Juan Donoso Cortés.

  • The Katechon in the Age of Biopolitical Nihilism
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Helsingin yliopiston digitaalinen arkisto This is a post-peer-review, pre-copyedit version of an article published in Continental Philosophy Review, vol. 45, issue 4. The final authenticated version is available online at: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11007-012-9232-y. Sergei Prozorov THE KATECHON IN THE AGE OF BIOPOLITICAL NIHILISM Introduction One of the most important contemporary developments in continental political thought is its ‘messianic turn’, associated with the work of Jacques Derrida, Giorgio Agamben, Alain Badiou, Jean Luc Nancy and Slavoj Zizek. Despite their enormous differences, these and other participants in this discussion all share a sense of exigency about the advent of a radically different world: the world of democracy to come, the coming community, the politics of truth, a new ‘creation’ of the world or emancipatory ‘divine violence’. What constitutes these diverse orientations as messianic is less their relation to any historical tradition of messianism than this exigency that the potentiality of radical change be actualized. What this thought opposes is therefore not a purely secularist politics that would be wholly indifferent to the messianic, but another tradition, which is both aware and wary of the messianic event and seeks to delay its advent at all cost. Just as the contemporary messianic turn, which is strongly influenced by Pauline epistles, this tradition, which arguably continues to define the basic coordinates of Western politics, is also grounded in a particular interpretation of a (disputed) Pauline text, namely the passage in the Second Letter to the Thessalonians on the figure of the katechon.
