Occupy Religion introduces readers to the growing role of religion
in the Occupy Movement and asks provocative questions about how
people of faith can work for social justice. From the temperance
movement to the Civil Rights movement, churches have played key
roles in important social movements, and Occupy Religion shows this
role is no less critical today.
Challenging Bruce McCormack's paradigm of post-Kantian Barth
scholarship, this book builds on the interpretative model that
Sigurd Baark developed in 2018. This model interprets Barth's
innovative adoption of an Anselmian mode of theological
speculation, against the intellectual-historical background of the
idealist tradition of speculative metaphysics that culminated in
Hegel. This book argues that Barth adopted the Anselmian mode of
speculation in which immediate self-identity between subject,
object, and act is found in the triune God alone, while the
speculative identity that enables human knowledge of God is none
other than the identity between God-in-and-for-Godself and
God-for-us. Exploring the nationalistic dimension of speculative
metaphysics in 19th-century Germany, Tseng identifies this as an
important aspect of the context of Barth's development of a
Christocentric form of speculative theology.
