Описание:

Demonization has increasingly become central to the global religious and political landscape. Passing Orders interrogates this ascendant centrality through an analysis of evangelical spiritual warfare demonologies in contemporary America, which envision the world as built on a clash of spiritual forces--good and evil, light and darkness, God and Satan--within which humanity is enmeshed and compelled to engage. It situates spiritual warfare as part of broader frameworks of American exceptionalism, ethnonationalism, and empire-management, exposing the theological foundations of the systems of queer- and transphobia, Islamophobia, antiblackness, and settler colonialism that justify the dehumanizing practices of the current US political order.

Drawing political theology into dialogue with queer, critical race, and decolonial theory, the book argues that demonologies are not just tools of dehumanization but ontological and biopolitical systems that create and maintain systems of sovereign power, or orthotaxies--models of the right ordering of bodies, territories, and time--that create uneven geographies of space and stratify humanity into hierarchies of being and nonbeing. Demonologies constitute and consolidate these geographies and startifications by enabling the framing of alternative orders as passing--as counterfeit, transgressive, and transient. However, these orders are unwilling to pass on, giving structure to deviant desires that refuse the violent imposition of sovereign power. Demonstrating these structures of refusal in demonologies of three figures--Jezebel, the Islamic Antichrist, and Leviathan--Passing Orders explores how demons exceed their designated role as self-consolidating others to embody alternative possibilities that unsettle orthotaxic claims over territory, time, and truth. Ultimately, it reimagines demons as a surprising source of political and social resistance, reflecting fragile and fractious communities bound by mutual passing and precarity into strategic coalitions of solidarity, subversion, and survival.
