[in] another manifestation of political angelism [at work]
I think it in general sounds more EN to put 'in another .... at work', but it may well be that you could leave those elements out.
ANGELISM
A theory of human existence that minimizes concupiscence and therefore ignores the need for moral vigilance and prayer to cope with the consequences of original sin. In general, the tendency to regard human affairs with casual optimism, as though human beings were angels without bodily needs and without proneness to sin.

another interpretation of the use of an angelic face for political advantage
I guess they are talking about the 'angel-like' features of this politician.

Emma Paulay
: That's what the angelism refers to in this sentence, but the context suggests that other examples have been cited earlier.

I understand that angelism means a kind of unsoiled detachment from the practical realities of politics (but I may very well be wrong), but I couldn't see how that fitted here.
