Beskrivning
This wide-ranging book examines Bonhoeffer through the prism of problems facing the modern world.Our digital and globalised era has facilitated multiple and instantaneous connections between individuals and communities. Yet rather than drawing us closer together, the rise of political extremism and mental health conditions in the Western world suggests that many people are becoming increasingly isolated and disenfranchised, unable to listen and understand one another in genuine, mutual freedom. These basic aspects of human life, which are necessary for everyone’s flourishing, indicate part of what is crucial for Christians who seek to live “for others” today, as God in Christ is “for us”.Tackling these issues are essays by contributors who have an established academic career, as well as others who offer creative insights to the Bonhoeffer guild, which would benefit from these fresh voices, lest Bonhoeffer’s legacy is turned in on itself, when like the church, it should exist “for others”.

Recensioner i media

This is an important collection of essays offering a critical reappraisal of Bonhoeffer’s work by scholars from around the world. Reading his 'for others' motif from a variety of global perspectives, the contributors assess both the power and the limits of Bonhoeffer’s concern for suffering, attending to the formative role of his own social location, including racialized whiteness. In moving beyond inherited heroic and white-savior framings, this volume advances a rigorous and generative conversation about Bonhoeffer’s legacy today.
