Political philosophy and Political theology in the Western tradition, always had a “strange alchemy” in between. The partnership between political philosophy and Christian theology in the Western tradition in promoting the modern notions of sovereign state and democracy has already been exposed by the contemporary post-Continental political thinkers. Giorgio Agamben, the well-known Italian political philosopher and theologian categorically exposes the correlation between the Western concept of sovereign state and the ancient patristic theology of divine sovereignty. This correlation was further legitimized by the Hobbesian (Thomas Hobbes) political philosophy and the Schmittian (Carl Schmitt) political theology in the modern period. When Johann Baptist Metz and Jurgen Moltmann envisioned a new turn in political theology in the form of a Liberation Theology in the Post-Auschwitz German context, they reclaimed the political content of Christian faith, but never addressed the inherent compromise on the notion of sovereignty. The post-Continental political thinkers such as Michael Hardt, Antonio Negri, Giorgio Agamben, Gilles Deleuze, Felix Guattari, Slavoj Zizek, Alain Badiou, and Catherine Malabou problematise the legitimisation of sovereignty in the Continental (postmodern) political theology and provoke Christian theology to take a radical turn towards New Materialism. This book tries to engage with those contemporary political philosophies in order to envisage a radical political theology in the immediate Indian context of corporate capitalism.
