" is sovereign who decides on the state of emergency "
Carl Schmitt, Theology Policy, 1921
Alan García put it better than anyone in a welcoming speech on the beatification of John Paul II, the Good Pope. It is striking that in the history of the church to a pontiff's called "the good pope," that makes it not stand to the other potatoes. But back to Alan Miller, the president said in decline:
" The first miracle" of John Paul II "was removed from this world to the demonic incarnation of crime, evil and hatred ."
seems naive and optimistic on the part of Alan Garcia, but not so. The concept of "miracle" has its legal background in the secularization of theology led to the legal level of state theory. The miracle is the exception. What supposedly makes miracle from heaven, the renowned John spoke II, Barak Obama does from Earth. The miracle is a paradigmatic form of government.
In his wonderful book "State of Emergency", Giorgio Agamben argues that since the latter has sustained a "legal civil war" at the international, political and technical excellence of this kind of sovereignty is a state of emergency.
The world after September 11, 2001 is exceptional. The war against terrorism as a concept bore military order, issued by the President George Bush on November 13, 2001. This attribute allows the military president of the United States to detain any foreign national without a warrant. This order allows the "indefinite detention" of any non-American citizen suspected of international terrorism. Agamben argues:
The novelty of the "order" of President Bush is canceling entirely revolutionizing the legal status of an individual, thus producing a legally unnamable and unspeakable. The Taliban captured in Afghanistan not only did not have POW status under the convention Geneva, but not even the accused of a crime under U.S. law. (State of emergency , p. 26-27)
Agamben argues that the status of prisoners these "terrorist" is similar to the status of Jews in the Nazi regime.
is sovereign who decides on the state of emergency, Carl Schmitt argued. Eest exception is at the level of legal theory to state that the miracle in theology. The miracle is the interruption of a natural order through a divine decision.
The Resurrection of Lazarus on the fourth day is a miracle (John 11:41-44). The murder of Bin Laden in the suburbs of Pakistan, is also a miracle, only covered in the theory of the state of emergency.
