Resumo: |
This work aims to explore and to discuss critically the question of “idolatry” from a proper philosophical point of view. I will also take into account contributions from contemporary theology and economics, which will offer elements for reflection and conceptual tools in order to understand the sense in which idolatry tout court shows itself as the expression of an oppressing divinity which demands the sacrifice of the human life and of life in general. As far as the economical sense is concerned, I will identify money, market, and capital with idols, defined as human creations that become insatiable and bring about exploitation and social injustice. My proposal is to use the specific approach of Flusser’s philosophy in order to argue that the “new magic” of the contemporary world is the complex ritualization of programs designed to build society according to the patterns of an idolatrous behavior. |
