Abstract

"Suffering, Politics, Power argues that human suffering on a global scale constitutes the most urgent and least understood question of contemporary politics and political theory. In the modern age, the experience of suffering is primarily a political problem, constructed out of crucial, conflicting perspectives. The book draws on a genealogy of suffering through the conflicting perspectives of four major political theorists: Martin Luther, Thomas Hobbes, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Friedrich Nietzsche. Although supplying contradictory accounts of the nature of suffering and human response to it, these theorists, when examined together, provide a historical foundation for the political structures of our time and a trajectory for the problematic of suffering which defies all limits. This book works to foster a contemporary political response to suffering, addressing the techniques of its product and representation and the dilemmas of ascertaining causes and responsibilities."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

Quelle valeur doit-on reconnaître au corps ? À quels principes éthiques se référer face aux évolutions actuelles de la médecine et de la biologie ? Comment assumer la maladie et la souffrance et en tirer un profit spirituel ? Quelles sont, aujourd'hui, les conditions d'une approche chrétienne du malade ? Quels liens les maladies mentales entretiennent-elles avec les maladies spirituelles ? Quelles sont les causes spirituelles de la dépression ? Comment les passions constituentelles un « inconscient spirituel » qui agit en nous ? De quelle manière affronter spirituellement l'épreuve de la mort ? Dans quelle mesure peut-on considérer le salut comme une guérison ? Telles sont quelques-unes des questions fondamentales auxquelles l'auteur – qui récapitule et prolonge ici, dans un style accessible à un large public, ses réflexions antérieures – tente d'apporter une réponse chrétienne

Abstract

In a diverse and innovative selection of new essays by cutting-edge theologians and philosophers, Suffering Religion examines one of the most primitive but challenging questions to define human experience - why do we suffer? As a theme uniting very different religious and cultural traditions, the problem of suffering addresses issues of passivity, the vulnerability of embodiment, the generosity of love and the complexity of gendered desire. Interdisciplinary studies bring different kinds of interpretations to meet and enrich each other. Can the notion of goodness retain meaning in the
