The next lecture in Sankt Ignatios College, Stockholm School of Theology spring series of public lectures entitled “Political Theology: The Sacralization of the Secular and (Post)Modern (Il)Liberal Paradigms”, will be presented on Thursday, April 8 at 1PM (CET) by Professor Davor Džalto.

In his lecture professor Džalto will examine the concepts of “liberalism” and “illiberalism” (conservatism) which dominate our current socio-political discourse and analyze them as two manifestation of the same modern (secular-religious) paradigm. He will analyze the history of this dichotomy and how (Orthodox) Christianity, and in particular the eschatological perspective of Christianity, can offer creative alternatives.

These lectures are compulsory for Pastoral-pedagogical, Religious Educator program students, MA students in Eastern Christian Studies and MA students in International Relations and Ecumenism, but we encourage all of our students to take part.
