Review Quotes
Scholarly discussions of political theology are broadening in productive ways, and Steven T. Lane's work contributes to this movement. Lane asks: what would it mean to shift the focus of political-theological analysis from singular sovereign to bureaucracy? To answer this question, he engages with social and political theory, from Max Weber to Wendy Brown, as well as with our contemporary political landscape, from the pandemic to mass incarceration. This book will give Christian social ethicists much to ponder.
