| Sumario: | Abstract: In this paper, I will argue that a Christian Political Theology is mostly
to be found in the concepts of the Church and in the performance of the Holy
Spirit by examining the works of Erik Peterson and Yves Congar. For both theologians, the political dimension of ecclesiology is grounded on the action of the
Holy Spirit, especially considering the birth of the Church in Pentecost, and the
pneumatological nature of the sacraments. Although Political Theology focused
mainly on the persons of the Father and the Son, I aim at showing how a Christian
Political Theology is ultimately grounded on the conceptual transferences between
the political and the theological that the Holy Spirit makes possible through the
Church: if there is a Christian Political Theology, it is essentially ecclesiological
and pneumatological. |
