Daniel Barreto reconstructs the theological genealogy of the nation-state through key texts such as \u003cem\u003eThe Star of Redemption\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eHegel and the State\u003c\/em\u003e. The reader will find a rigorous analysis that unveils the political violence inherent in nationalism and proposes, from a critique of Western idealism, a new way of thinking about time, universality, and democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book delves into the political potentialities of the work of Franz Rosenzweig, a philosopher who influenced thinkers such as Walter Benjamin and Emmanuel Levinas. Based on his fundamental texts, Daniel Barreto explores the relationship between theology and politics to unravel the origins of the modern nation-state. Rosenzweig’s critique, inspired by the Hebrew tradition, confronts Western idealism and the ideology of historical progress, revealing how these currents have justified political violence. The work invites us to reconsider concepts such as historical time, universality, and democracy from a renewed perspective, offering tools for alternative political thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTheological genealogy of the nation-state and critique of nationalism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePolitical philosophy of Franz Rosenzweig and his influence on contemporary thought.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between Western idealism, historical progress, and political violence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReformulation of democracy and universality from the Hebrew source.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eIntersection between philosophy of religion and political theory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at students and researchers of political philosophy, state theory, religious studies, and contemporary Jewish thought.
