immanentize the eschaton
In political theory and theology, to immanentize the eschaton means trying to bring about the eschaton (the final, heaven-like stage of history) in the immanent world. In all these contexts it means "trying to make that which belongs to the afterlife happen here and now (on Earth)." Theologically the belief is akin to postmillennialism as reflected in the Social Gospel of the 1880–1930 era,[1] as well as Protestant reform movements during the Second Great Awakening in the 1830s and 1840s such as abolitionism.
