Carl Schmitt: Katechon
September 22, 2024 - The principle of the katechon in Schmitt’s eschatology is therefore about maintaining a political order, it is properly a ‘politics of the present.’ It defines “the space between the radically spiritual and the purely political. It is the time window, the mean-time, the in-between of the first and second coming of the Lord.”10Hoelzl, “Before the Anti-Christ is Revealed,” pp.

February 25, 2023 -
This Greek word is found in 2 Thessalonians 2:6–7 in an eschatological context: Christians must not be concerned as if the Day of the Lord would happen tomorrow, since the man of lawlessness (Antichrist) must be revealed before it occurs.
St. Paul the Apostle then adds that the Antichrist's emergence is conditional upon the removal of "something/someone that restrains him" from becoming fully manifested. Verse 6 uses the neuter gender, τὸ κατέχον; and verse 7 the masculine, ὁ κατέχων.
Since Paul does not explicitly mention the katechon's identity, the passage's interpretation has been subject to extensive dialogue and debate amongst Christian academics.

December 15, 2023 - For Schmitt, the katechon implies an essentially non-sovereign form of power, which both maintains and renews an existing social order to ensure the continuation of history understood as the realm of ‘infinite singularity’.
