Sloterdijka krytyka mesjanizmu

Abstract

The aim of my paper is to reconstruct Peter Sloterdijk’s critique of messianism. Sloterdijk distinguishes two sources of messianism: monotheistic zealousness and cumulation of ire. The main consequence of messianism is political cynicism. Communism and the discourse of the end of history are main secularized manifestations of messianism. Article ends with some critical remarks on Sloterdijk’s view
