Beskrivning

Intercultural Theology offers a set of groundbreaking essays that describe the nature of intercultural theology as a domain of theology that pays particular attention to the identity of non-western forms of Christianity in dialogue with western forms. It is theological discourse engaged in multi-disciplinary dialogue and therefore uses the insights from historical, socio-cultural, inter-religious and empirical studies. Intercultural theology is a development from previous discussions within mission studies, contextual theology, studies in world Christianity and Third World theology.

Recensioner i media

This book, written mostly by theologians of European origins, challenges the universalistic claims of the Western theologies. It examines cases from at least four continents and various confessional families: Catholic, Protestant, and Pentecostal. The writers provide helpful suggestions for the study of the inter-relationship among various contextual theologies. Scholars interested in the fields of contextual theologies, comparative theology, and world Christianity will find this a useful companion.
