Totalitarianism in the Postmodern Age
In Totalitarianism in the Postmodern Age Piotr Mazurkiewicz et al. seek to answer the question whether a possible spread of pre-totalitarian attitudes among youth may in the near future pose a threat to the contemporary liberal democratic societies. The authors offer a new approach to the study of totalitarian trends in European societies significantly different from the previous one exploring mainly the historical and institutional-procedural as…
A New Dimension of the Catholic Church's Influence on the World
When reflecting on the relationship between the Catholic Church and the modern world in the second half of the 20th century, it is impossible to overlook the radical shift brought about by John Paul II. As Ernst-Wolfgang Böckenförde points out, the saintly Pope opened a "new dimension of the Church's influence on the world". The essence of this novelty was John Paul II's perception of the Church's task as being defined "centrally and exclusively …

Unconstrained Anthropology

The main aim of the text is a disc…
Religion
This article contributes to critical reflection on the political study approach towards the relations between religion and fundamentalism. In the context of post-secularism, in which the cognitive and moral role of religion for politics is quite widely recognised, the aim is to discuss three hypotheses. The first one argues that, contrary to what the majority of the subject's literature maintains, fundamentalism is not only a strictly religious p…
