«As religiões políticas» is Eric Voegelin's essay on political philosophy, published by Vega in paperback, 91 pages, in Portuguese.
Eric Voegelin analyses how 20th-century political movements, especially totalitarianisms, adopt traits typical of religions: dogmas, promises of salvation and absolute fidelity. The essay studies the sacralisation of politics and its consequences for contemporary social and spiritual life.
This Portuguese edition, published in 2002, is based on the French version, translated by Tresa Marques da Silva; the original German title is «Die politischen Religionen» (1938).
For readers of political philosophy and history interested in the roots of totalitarianisms and the relationship between faith and power.
