- Description
- Fredric Jameson defines the work of Roland Boer "an extraordinary tour de force" to the discovery of the reflections that many Marxist intellectuals have devoted to religion and theology. Building on classical thinkers such as Walter Benjamin, Antonio Gramsci and Louis Althusser, until you get to the authors at the center of contemporary debate - Alain Badiou, Slavoj Zizek, Giorgio Agamben and Antonio Negri - the critical project of Boer aims first of all to develop categories for the renewal of the debate on the relationship between Marxism and religion. A guide him in this work is the conviction, following Marx, that religion is the "inverted consciousness of the world" that the craft of criticism must overturn, return with their feet on the ground, revealing the forms and ideological functions but also the complex links that it maintains with the needs and desires of the human soul. Boer does not intend to propose an analysis of religious phenomena as mere expressions of "real suffering", or to propose a new version of themes already explored by liberation theology. And you have not even read his work as a current marxologica the inner to the constellation that is uneven at all political theology. Its originality and its strength are mainly in the ability to bring to light the unconscious religious of much of Western Marxism. Disclosing the depth and range of this removed, the Boer then reveals a practice not only useful and valuable, but also radical, that is capable of "grasping things at the root." It shows the need to recognize a need with which to contend to reorganize a project of liberation from capital that is overcoming authentic.
