Inkluzywne nurty dojrzałej teologii politycznej Jürgena Moltmanna

Abstract

The paper follows the development of academic activity of a German protestant theologian Jürgen Moltmann covering the period of seven decades and interprets it from the perspective of political theology that he has been creating in an explicit or more implicit way, integrating it with various and seemingly non-political issues. Such integral and cohesive shape of Moltmann’s political theology unveils a picture of committed Christian reflection involved in various areas of social and natural life. In an original way, Moltmann picks up not only the subjects typically associated with political philosophy and theology, such as human rights, freedom, dignity, equality or justice, but refers all of them to non-human part of the natural world – the world that is on the brink global catastrophe that endangers the whole human and non-human system of life on earth. It is an apocalyptic catastrophe undoubtedly caused by humans.
