Book Synopsis Perspektiven dialogischer Theologie by : Katajun Amirpur
Download or read book Perspektiven dialogischer Theologie written by Katajun Amirpur and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2016 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angesichts aggressiver religiöser Alleinvertretungsansprüche wird die Frage zunehmend drängender, wie dieser Entwicklung begegnet werden kann. Die Antwort auf Gewalt darf nicht in Gegengewalt bestehen; vielmehr gilt es, Gründe und Ansätze aufzuzeigen, die für eine Akzeptanz von Menschen ungeachtet ihrer religiös-weltanschaulichen Zugehörigkeit sprechen. Dies ist nicht nur theologisch wichtig, sondern hat auch Bedeutung für das Zusammenleben von Menschen unterschiedlicher Religion und Kultur in modernen Gesellschaften. Dieser Band verfolgt das Anliegen, den Dialog in der Theologie zu stärken - und zwar nicht nur in christlicher Theologie, sondern auch in den 'Theologien' anderer großer Religionen wie dem Judentum, dem Islam, dem Hinduismus und dem Buddhismus. Es werden Antworten auf die Frage gegeben, was sich in den theologischen Selbstverständnissen der eigenen wie auch der anderen religiösen Traditionen ändert, wenn Dialog in die Mitte rückt. Theologische Experten und Expertinnen unterschiedlicher religiöser Traditionen nehmen Stellung zu Offenheit gegenüber den religiös Anderen und äußern sich zu Perspektiven einer dialogischen Theologie.

This insightful collection will benefit students and researchers with an interest in religion and laicism, interreligious dialogue, governance of religious diversity, and religion in the public sphere.
Book Synopsis Becoming Interreligious by : Ephraim Meir
Download or read book Becoming Interreligious written by Ephraim Meir and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2017 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume contains reflections on the desirability and even the necessity of the interreligious dialogue and of dialogical theology in an increasingly globalized world. A kaleidoscope of various religions, each with its own specificity and cultural singularity, characterizes plural, open societies. In this constellation, encounters with religious others allow us to reimagine and reconfigure our religious singularity. In the process of becoming interreligious, one dynamically and creatively shapes one's particularity in communication with others. The nightmare of a homogeneous society where the other has no place at all receives its alternative in the vision of a growing community in which one's cultural and religious identity is formed, affirmed, and transformed in dialogue with others. Meir, Ephraim, Prof. Dr. ist Professor für moderne jüdische Philosophie an der Bar-Ilan Universität in Ramat Gan, Israel, und arbeitet seit 2014 regelmäßig zweimal im Jahr als 'Emmanuel-Lévinas-Gastprofessor für jüdische Dialogstudien und interreligiöse Theologie' an der Akademie der Weltreligionen der Universität Hamburg. Schwerpunkte: moderne jüdische Philosophie, dialogisches Denken, interreligiöse Theologie.
Book Synopsis Shifting Locations and Reshaping Methods by : Ulrich Winkler
Download or read book Shifting Locations and Reshaping Methods written by Ulrich Winkler and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2018 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays presents the reader with a fine overview and detailed discussion on the impact of interreligious studies and intercultural theology on methods and methodologies. New fields of study require new methods and methodologies, and, although these two new fields draw from a host of existing other disciplines and areas of thought and are almost transdisciplinary in nature, they nonetheless influence existing methodologies and help them evolve in new directions.
Book Synopsis Theopoetics and Religious Difference by : Marius van Hoogstraten
Download or read book Theopoetics and Religious Difference written by Marius van Hoogstraten and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2020-09-30 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why are interreligious encounters and relations both more troubling and more promising than typically assumed, and how can this be embraced? In engaging the contemporary theological discourse of "theopoetics," Marius van Hoogstraten offers a way of approaching religious difference that, while perhaps unusual to readers familiar with more conventional theology, may be especially fitting for this age."--Provided by publisher
Book Synopsis Pluralisation of Theologies at European Universities by : Wolfram Weiße
Download or read book Pluralisation of Theologies at European Universities written by Wolfram Weiße and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2020 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication assumes that the modern context of plurality requires universities and higher education to support studying plural religious traditions in depth, giving due consideration to plural religious and secular perspectives, and providing opportunities for interaction between them. There are various ways to realise these aims. Success may be supported (or hindered) by various structures and concepts prevalent in universities or by different schools of thought on the nature of religions, on their relation to each other, and on their place in society. Religions and theologies can be studied in parallel, in cooperation, in dialogue, or through integrative approaches. The differing theoretical positions and contextual conditions (institutional, social, political) within which (inter)religious learning takes place are an important focus of this publication, both for the possibilities they open up and the limitations they pose. This publication builds on the presentations and discussions of scholars participating at a conference at the University of Hamburg in December 2018, with some additional contributions from others in the field who were unable to attend in person.
Book Synopsis Religion and Dialogue in the City by : Julia Ipgrave
Download or read book Religion and Dialogue in the City written by Julia Ipgrave and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2018 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban spaces throughout Europe are increasingly characterised by a mixture of different religions and worldviews. Being home to a wide range of religious and non-religious groups and individuals does not mean that cities are automatically also spaces of interreligious and interfaith encounters. Whether a city is a venue for interreligious encounter and dialogue, or merely a place where various religions and worldviews exist side by side, is a central question for the continuing social cohesion of modern societies. This volume presents selected findings of the international research project 'Religion and Dialogue in Modern Societies' (ReDi) which investigated dialogical practice in the five metropolitan cities Oslo, Stockholm, London, Hamburg and Duisburg. It offers a range of case studies addressing two fields of activity: dialogue and interreligious encounters in the urban space and dialogue in education.
Book Synopsis Transformative Readings of Sacred Scriptures by : Simone Sinn
Download or read book Transformative Readings of Sacred Scriptures written by Simone Sinn and published by Evangelische Verlagsanstalt. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interpretation of sacred scriptures engenders vivid debates in religious communities, both at the scholarly and grass-roots levels. Issues of debate are the hermeneutical assumptions, the methods of interpretation, and the constructive and harmful implications of certain readings. For Christian and Muslim communities, themes related to God's grace, violence, gender relations and ecology, are topical. As scholars from different contexts and faith backgrounds together interpret sacred texts they gain fresh insights into their meaning and their transformative dynamics. Essays by authors with expertise in scriptural interpretation, religious studies, pastoral care, philosophical theology, gender studies and pedagogy explore Christian and Muslim perspectives on scriptural interpretation, and discuss how to understand how God communicates with the world today. [Heilige Schriften heute verstehen. Christen und Muslime im Dialog] Die Interpretation heiliger Schriften löst lebhafte Debatten innerhalb der Religionsgemeinschaften aus, sowohl unter Gelehrten wie an der Basis. Diskutiert werden die hermeneutischen Grundannahmen, die Methoden der Interpretation und die konstruktiven und destruktiven Wirkungen bestimmter Lesarten. Für Christen und Muslime sind Themen wie Gottes Gnade, Gewalt, Geschlechterverhältnisse und Ökologie aktuell geworden. Indem die Gelehrten aus verschiedenen Kontexten und mit unterschiedlicher Religionszugehörigkeit gemeinsam die Interpretation heiliger Texte diskutieren, gewinnen sie neue Einsichten in ihre Bedeutung und ihre transformative Dynamik. Die Autorinnen und Autoren mit ihrem jeweiligen Fachwissen in Exegese, Religionswissenschaft, Seelsorge, philosophischer Theologie, Gender Studies und Pädagogik erforschen christliche und muslimische Perspektiven auf Schriftinterpretation und erörtern, wie Gottes Kommunikation mit der Welt heute verstanden werden kann.
Book Synopsis Tolerance and Intolerance in Religion and Beyond by : Anne Sarah Matviyets
Download or read book Tolerance and Intolerance in Religion and Beyond written by Anne Sarah Matviyets and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-09 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on religious tolerance and intolerance in terms of practices, institutions, and intellectual habits. It brings together an array of historical and anthropological studies and philosophical, cognitive, and psychological explorations by established scholars from a range of disciplines. The contributions feature modern and historic instances of tolerance and intolerance across a variety of geographies, societies, and religious traditions. They help readers to gain an understanding of the notion of tolerance and the historical consequences of intolerance from the perspective of different cultures, religions, and philosophies. The volume highlights tolerance’s potential to be a means to build bridges and at the same time determine limits. Whilst the challenge of promoting tolerance has mostly been treated as a value or practice of demographic or religious majorities, this book offers a broader take and pays attention to minority perspectives. It is a valuable reference for scholars of religious studies, the sociology of religion, and the history of religion.
Book Synopsis Moral and Spiritual Leadership in an Age of Plural Moralities by : Hans Alma
Download or read book Moral and Spiritual Leadership in an Age of Plural Moralities written by Hans Alma and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In crisis situations, such as terror attacks or societal tensions caused by migration, people tend to look for explicit moral and spiritual leadership and are often inclined to vote for so-called 'strong leaders'. Is there a way to resist the temptation of the simplistic solutions that these ‘strong leader’ offer, and instead encourage constructive engagement with the complex demands of our times? This volume utilises relational and dialogical perspectives to examine and address many of the issues surrounding the moral and spiritual guidance articulated in globalizing Western societies. The essays in this collection focus on the concept of plural moralities, understood as divergent visions on what is a 'good life', both in an ethical, aesthetical, existential, and spiritual sense. They explore the political-cultural context and consequences of plural moralities as well as discussing challenges, possibilities, risks, and dangers from the perspective of two promising relational theories: social constructionism and dialogical self theory. The overarching argument is that it is possible to constructively put in nuanced moral and spiritual guidance into complex, plural societies. By choosing a clear theoretical focus on relational approaches to societal challenges, this interdisciplinary book provides both a broad scope and a coherent argument. It will be of great interest to scholars of social and political psychology, leadership and organization, religious studies, and pedagogy.
Book Synopsis Interreligious Engagement in Urban Spaces by : Julia Ipgrave
Download or read book Interreligious Engagement in Urban Spaces written by Julia Ipgrave and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines interreligious dialogue from a European perspective. It features detailed case studies analysed from different disciplinary perspectives. These studies consider such activities as face-to-face discussion groups, public meetings, civic consultations with members of faith groups, and community action projects that bring together people from different faiths. Overall, the work reports on five years of qualitative empirical research gathered from different urban sites across four European cities (Hamburg, London, Stockholm, Oslo). It includes a comparative element which connects distinctive German, Scandinavian, and English experiences of the shared challenge of religious plurality. The contributors look at the issue through social, material, and ideological dimensions. They explore the following questions: Is interreligious dialogue the producer or product of social capital? What and how are different meanings produced and contested in places of interreligious activity? What is the function of religious thinking in different forms of interreligious activity? Their answers present a detailed analysis of the variety of practices on the ground. A firm empirical foundation supports their conclusions. Readers will learn about the changing nature of urban life through increasing pluralisation and the importance of interreligious relations in the current socio-political context. They will also gain a better understanding of the conditions, processes, function, and impact of interreligious engagement in community relations, public policy, urban planning, and practical theology.
Book Synopsis Buddhism in Dialogue with Contemporary Societies by : Carola Roloff
Download or read book Buddhism in Dialogue with Contemporary Societies written by Carola Roloff and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2020 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing pluralization of religion and culture in Europe means that we encounter an increasing number of Buddhist immigrants as well as ‘Western’ converts. Against this background, in June 2018, the Academy of World Religions and the Numata Center for Buddhist Studies at the University of Hamburg (Germany), invited scholars of Theravāda, East Asian and Tibetan Buddhism. The questions discussed referred to: - Does Buddhism matter today? What can it contribute? - Must Buddhism adapt to the modern world? How can Buddhism adapt to a non-Asia context? - When Buddhism travels, what must be preserved if Buddhism is to remain Buddhism? The contributions in this volume show not only that Buddhism matters in the West but that it already has its strong impact on our societies. Therefore, universities in Europe should include Buddhist theories and techniques in their curricula.
Book Synopsis Peacebuilding in Pakistan by : Heike Ruhland
Download or read book Peacebuilding in Pakistan written by Heike Ruhland and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2019 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Pakistan was carved out of India in 1947 as a homeland for the Muslims of the subcontinent, it was envisioned as a secular state where non-Muslims would be granted freedom of religion and equal citizenship. However, the subsequent historical events led to a fast Islamization of nearly every part of public life and discrimination against the country's religious minorities, who today make up less than 4 per cent of the overall population. Based on extensive field work involving more than 100 non-structured qualitative interviews, this study explores the situation of the religious minorities and the dynamics of interfaith peacebuilding in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Primary focus was laid on the practice of interfaith dialogue, which - given the draconic blasphemy laws - differs from interfaith dialogue as conceived of in the West. Additionally, other peacebuilding measures, as offered by various non-governmental organizations, were taken into account, be they advocacy, promotion of human rights and unbiased education, or policy negotiation with the government. Heike Ruhland holds two master's degrees, one in Islamic Studies (University of Zurich) and one in International Information Management (University of Hildesheim). She attained her PhD from the Academy of World Religions, University of Hamburg.
Book Synopsis Understanding Religion by : Ulrich Riegel
Download or read book Understanding Religion written by Ulrich Riegel and published by Waxmann Verlag. This book was released on 2019-10-14 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, religion is a complex issue. In Western Europe, the so-called “Christian heritage” is challenged by both other religious traditions and secular worldviews. It is therefore essential to understand the complexity of religion in different contexts. This volume addresses four questions in this regard: How can we assess religion and religiosity appropriately? What are important markers of religiosity? How does religion affect recent society? How can religion be taught in modern society? By dealing with these questions, the contributions to this volume offer an insight into the recent state-of-the-art of research on religion and religiosity within the field of religious education on an international level.
Book Synopsis Conservative Religion and Mainstream Culture by : Stefan Gelfgren
Download or read book Conservative Religion and Mainstream Culture written by Stefan Gelfgren and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights tensions and negotiating processes between modern society and conservative religious groups. Conservative religion and society have co-existed for at least a century in an increasingly pluralist society. Still, the right to religious freedom and tolerance clashes with certain expressions of religious exclusivity. In this book, scholars from different disciplines look at the various ways in which representatives of conservative religious faith live, practice, and formulate their religion in relation to a contemporary mainstream culture. The studies included represent various settings with regard to time, religion and geography, and are presented in three thematic groups: culture, schooling and public life, and media. Taken together, the studies contribute to a more nuanced and diverse picture of conservative religious believers and their engagement with mainstream society. The book will be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of sociology of religion, church history and contemporary religion.
