{"product_id":"political-eschatology-sean-j-mcgrath-9781666798371","title":"Political Eschatology","description":"Nothing is more distressing to the modern person than the experience of an unsurpassable limit of the calculable. Nothing disturbs us more deeply than incalculable time, unpredictable time--the time of the advent of the unpredictably new. In a series of interventions into contemporary political crises, McGrath reactualizes the early Christian sense of eschatology as the experience of a time that runs out rather than moves forward. In contemporary politics, economy, ecology, and technology, much that was familiar for most of the twentieth century--the intra-generational transmission of religious values, progressive economic growth, a stable global climate, and predictable movements of peoples and nonhuman species across the planet--is ending calamitously. Endtime, however, is not only the time of endings; it is also the time of unforeseeable beginnings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sean J.
