Section III: Reconstructing Power

Conclusion

The gospel of revolution has changed forms, but not goals. From Marx to Marcuse, the promise remains: freedom through deconstruction, justice through upheaval.

But as we’ve seen, this vision of power is totalizing. It sees behind every institution a mask of domination, behind every tradition a system of control. And in doing so, it leaves little room for grace, truth, or redemption.

The desire for justice is right. But when justice is severed from transcendence, it becomes a tool of vengeance rather than restoration.

In the next section, we will explore how this reimagined power reconfigures not only politics, but morality itself.
