Beschreibung
This book offers a geneaological understanding of the condition of our time by reconstructing the complex story of the transition from the "e;cyclical time"e; of the classic era to the "e;linear and infuturant time"e; of the modern world. Time is therefore understood not as a simple vector, but as a trans-political form par excellence, which involves the fundamental philosophical and political categories of the modern constellation: beginning with the concepts of progress, revolution, liberation, and alternative.Arguing that the process of secularization (in its broadest sense) is dependent on the modern notion of cumulative and irreversible time-together with the temporalization of history-Power and Secularization constitutes a conceptual history that will appeal to scholars of social and political theory and philosophy with interests in intellectual history and the genealogical method.
