\nThe contributors demonstrate that \r\npolitical theology is a powerful \r\nresource by which to both \r\nrecognize and challenge the \r\nmodalities of politics and social \r\nlife that are practiced in our \r\nown time. The reimagination that \r\nthe title points to is not so \r\nmuch a way to start political \r\ntheology all over again but to \r\nfocus on its subversive and \r\nradical potential.\" \r\n- James R. Martel, \r\nauthor of Anarchist Prophets<\/i><\/pre>\n<\/blockquote>\nAssistant Professor Alex Dubilet<\/a> has co-edited\u00a0Political Theory<\/em> Reimagined<\/em>, recently published by Duke University Press<\/a>. Political theology has emerged as an enormously energetic, creative way of exploring the complex relationships between religion, politics, and culture around the world. The volume centers decolonial, Black, queer, feminist, and Marxist modes of critical practice to offer a cutting-edge vision of the field that foregrounds a political theology animated by both a fascination with and a suspicion of the secular.<\/p>\n
An interdisciplinary scholar by training and sensibility, Professor Dubilet thinks and writes across critical theory (broadly conceived), modern and contemporary continental philosophy, political theology, and the history and theory of mysticism. His work also engages the methods and materials of philosophy of religion, radical political theory, the critical study of Christianity and the secular, and theories of race and colonialism.<\/p>\n
