Beschreibung:

Both the ecumenical and interfaith movements have been active over the past several decades and have made considerable contributions to building human relationships. However, are the theological bases and the assumptions on which they were built adequate for a world that has radically changed? The collection of essays in this volume, while tracing these movements' histories, also points to the major contemporary issues they face and the new theological and spiritual orientations they need to meet the challenges of our day.
Interfaith dialogue in a plural world.

This volume is based on the belief that both the ecumenical and interfaith movements are looking for new orientations for their future. The forces of globalization, communications revolution, and massive population movements challenge some of the theological assumptions and presuppositions on which they were built. The entry of deep and divisive religious sentiments into the public space and the rise of militant forms of religious expression call on the interfaith movement to move beyond traditional forms of dialogue; the challenge is to enter into a deeper engagement on the purpose and role of religious traditions in society. The impasse facing these movements can only be overcome by new orientations as they look to the future. This volume is not specifically on this problem. However, the collection of essays included in this volume, although first given as lectures or written as articles, traces past developments, identifies the challenges these movements face today, and suggests fresh theological moves to regain the initiatives to bring human communities closer together.
