Abstract

A conference paper about political theology of philosopher Carl Schmitt is presented. It mentions that Schmitt's theory helps in understanding the Islamists and Hindu Nationalists but has limitation while integrating these new religious political movements into democratic and pluralistic countries such as India and Middle-East. Topics discussed include problem of the modern state, religious political movements, and German philosopher Jürgen Habermas' prospect of post-secularism.
