Postmodernism as Playing Field Leveller

"The critique, then, has a dual aim: On the one hand, Milbank seeks to unveil the deeply religious or even theological commitments that undergird supposedly secular social science (and other modes of knowledge); on the other hand, having unveiled that and thus leveled the playing field (showing that all claims to knowledge are, at root, confessional), Milbank seeks to reinvigorate distinctly Christian accounts of sociality (and other spheres of being-in-the-world). "
