Saitya Brata Das argues that in Kierkegaard's work we find a
radical eschatological critique, not only of the liberal-humanist
pathos of modernity but also the political theology of Carl
Schmitt, that seeks to legitimise the sovereign power of the state
by an appeal to a divine or theological foundation. Relating
Kierkegaard's notion of 'Christianity without Christendom' to the
Schellingian eschatological critique of sovereignty, he shows how
Schelling's insistence on the eschatological difference between
religion and politics is transformed and further intensified in
Kierkegaard's critique of historical reason. Such an exception
without sovereignty, Das argues, is the very task of our
contemporary time.
