Abstract:
R adical Orthodoxy is a theological movement that critiques secular modernity and argues that modern philosophy and political thought are based on distorted interpretations of Christian theology. This article examines the intellectual foundations of Radical Orthodoxy, its interaction with Christian theological traditions, and its critique of secular rationality.
Drawing on the works of John Milbank, Catherine Pickstock, and Graham Ward, this study demonstrates how the movement has contributed to contemporary theology, philosophy, and political theory. It also reviews criticisms directed at the movement, particularly the accusations of theological idealism and the rejection of modern secular frameworks. Ultimately, the article argues that Radical Orthodoxy presents a strong theological critique of secularism and re-establishes theology as the foundational basis of intellectual inquiry.
Given the significance of this intellectual movement, a more thorough exploration of its broad and multifaceted impact on contemporary theology and its relation to Western philosophical developments may open new horizons in interdisciplinary.
