Zusammenfassung: | The objective of this article is to examine the political ethics of Karl Barth in the context of neoliberal China, with a focus on how he relates ethical beliefs to political engagement. Barth believes that human ethical action must be our free response to the Word of God in a covenantal relationship and thus be responsible to the rights of others. When addressing political issues, he resists all forms of hegemony, embraces a collective understanding of human rights, and urges their crucial importance for sustaining a humane political community. This article suggests that Barth's political ethics is helpful in reflecting on the lessons and prospects of collective right and resistance to Chinese neoliberalism. |
