Abstract

The author critiques the book "Divine Democracy: Political Theology After Carl Schmitt" by Miguel Vatter. Topics include the author's doubt about the possibility of a democratic political theology on the grounds that Vatter would like to construct it, a discussion of the scientific and polemical meanings of Carl Schmitt's political theology and Vatter's claim that theorists are united by their common debt to an idea of divine democracy that rests on cultural legacy of Christian universalism.
