La polémica de la teología política y su vigencia actual / The controversy of the political theology and its current validity
Abstract
Resumen En el mundo Post 11-S asistimos a un resurgir de la teologia politica como fenomeno mundano y academico. Las discusiones actuales retoman esta disciplina en unos terminos muy similares a los utilizados en la decada de 1970 en la polemica sobre la “liquidacion de la teologia politica”, donde participaron los principales expertos de filosofia politica internacional. En este articulo exponemos los argumentos fundamentales de aquella discusion, a fin de mostrar las aportaciones que esta polemica clasica podria ofrecer a la situacion geopolitica actual. En primer lugar, desarrollaremos el debate segun su estructura argumental siguiendo las intervenciones de los protagonistas de la disputa y sus antecedentes historicos. A continuacion, mostraremos como se puso de manifiesto que la teologia politica no solo precedia a la tradicion cristiana, sino que tambien formaba parte de la filosofia moderna. Concluiremos mencionando la recuperacion de la disciplina que algunos autores proponen en el contexto geopolitico actual. Palabras clave: Etica, teologia politica, religion, filosofia politica Abstract In the Post 11-S world we witness a resurgence of political theology as a mundane and academic phenomenon. The current discussions take up this discipline in very similar terms to those used in the 1970s in the controversy over the “liquidation of political theology”, in which the mean experts on international political philosophy participated. In this article we expose the fundamental arguments of that discussion, in order to show the contributions that this classic polemic could offer to the current geopolitical situation. In the first place, we will develop the debate according to its argumentative structure, following the interventions of the protagonists of the dispute and its historical antecedents. Next, we will show how it became clear that political theology not only preceded the Christian tradition but was also part of modern philosophy. We conclude by mentioning the recovery of the discipline that some authors propose in the current geopolitical context. Keywords: Ethics, political theology, religion, political philosophy.
