N2  - Having pinpointed the difficulties in interpretation of Paul Ricœur’s conference “Political power: the end of the Theologico-Political?” (1992), published in the present edition, the author shows that Ricœur’s reflections on the Theologico-Political are part of a triangle defined by the names Claude Lefort, Hannah Arendt and John Rawls. The question resulting from the confrontation of the first two is the deficit in the legitimisation of democracy. Because Ricœur refuses Lefort’s position seeing in democracy a political form in which the place of power is void, he proposes the concept of a new form of political theology of which the subject would be the ecclesial community. This new political theology would show in its practices the power-in-common, the origin of political power. Following Rawls, Ricœur proposes finding in the specific “way of life” of the ecclesial communities the moral source of the concept of justice which organises democratic societies. This is why Ricœur’s new political theology is part of the consensus by overlap in which Rawls identifies the mode in which the different concepts of good present in pluralist societies contribute to the stabilisation of the concept of justice
