Sažetak
The paper researches the complex relation between Eschatology and Politics from the theological point of view by revealing their mutual points, and along with that aims to present the eschatological implications that are being put to Politics. The intention of this paper is to represent the Politics as interest field of Eschatology and also Eschatology as its critical corrective by warning to the risks and possibilities its relationship has to offer.
Aside to notional explanations the paper firstly emphasizes the characteristic Old testament experience from historical events that were interpreted in the eschatological key, especially with the role of the prophets. New testament Eschatology is focused here on Jesus’ relation to political life. Finally, the paper reflects the (im)possibility to speak of the eschatological implications to Politics in some concrete social issues, especially as a notion for political action that must nourish the relation towards past and correctly embed it to the future.
