This book is a critical engagement with the writing of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German theologian who was killed in the waning days of World War II, having been involved in the plot to assassinate Hitler. Since his death, Bonhoeffer has become a martyr and saint, and is often seen as a model for Christian pacifist resistance, and more recently for direct political action. The latter has included violent anti-abortion protestors and Christian and political leaders calling for support on a 'war on terror' in the aftermath of 9/11. Petra Brown critically analyses Bonhoeffer's writing preceding and during his conspiracy involvement, particularly his recurring concept of the 'extraordinary.' She examines this concept in light of 'the state of exception,' a concept coined by the one-time Nazi jurist and political theorist, Carl Schmitt, and by drawing on the existentialist philosopher Sören Kierkegaard. In doing so, this book aims to complicate an unreflective admiration of Bonhoeffer's decision for conspiracy, and draws attention to the potentially dangerous implications of his emerging political theology.
