Recenzii
What an education! Kyle Edward Haden leads us slowly but with great sure-footedness through some of the most challenging of modern thinkers in order to open us up to that most timely of gifts: the ability to engage in self-critical thinking about who we are and where our lives together are taking us. Highly recommended.
Haden has an uncanny ability to make significant theories understandable and practical; hence Bourdieu's concepts of field and habitus are used to show how American nationalism is woven into the consciousness of Christians for whom American = Christian and American = white. Girard's mimetic theory along with needs/emotional theory is used to show how an emotionally charged and savvy leader can inspire a mimetic emotional contagion to draw crowds into his agenda. The exclusionary nationalist idolatry of a significant segment of US Christianity is contrasted with a sensitive reading of Jesus's teachings on inclusion, hospitality, justice, and a particularly cogent openness to the other.
