conversations between a radical Democrat and a Christian Hauerwas, Stanley creator author. Coles, Romand author. text bibliography Electronic books. enk 2008 2008 monographic eng 1 online resource (372 pages) These essays reflect on possibilities and practices of radical democracy and radical ecclesia that take form in the textures of relational care for the radical ordinary. Hauerwas and Coels point out political and theological imaginations beyond the political formations, which seems to be the declination and the production of death. The authors call us to a revolutionary politics of 'wild patience' that seeks transformation through attentive practices of listening, relationship-building, and a careful tending to places, common goods, and diverse possibilities for flourishing.
