Описание:
SHARING JERUSALEM A Peace Agreement proposes that people worldwide help to create a "New Deal" in the Middle East by becoming more aware & by funding FOUR exciting World ClassFeatures.This ethical & compassionate, win-win agreement would employ, encourage & teach the principles of truth, reconciliation & sustainability on a daily basis.
IMAGINE the Old City of Jerusalem as a giant "Home" with a new story. Also imagine the area around the Mount of Olives as a giant "Garden". The Home & Garden are combined to create a "LANDbridge" (significantly widening the Green Line) between East & West Jerusalem.
The Home & Garden Peace Plan is based on forward thinking, interfaith understandings, sociopolitical realities as well as sensitivities to geography & nature. The LANDbridge would consist of a relatively small piece of real estate that the State of Ishmael & the State of Israel can both share & claim. Instead of fighting over the land or forcing religious / political beliefs upon anyone, each of the people residing within this demilitarized, depoliticized LANDbridge would be free to choose their nationality & beliefs.
Muthuraj Swamy provides a fresh perspective on the world religions paradigm and 'interreligious dialogue'. By challenging the assumption that 'world religions' operate as essential entities separate from the lived experiences of practitioners, he shows that interreligious dialogue is in turn problematic as it is built on this very paradigm, and on the myth of religious conflict.
Offering a critique of the idea of 'dialogue' as it has been advanced by its proponents such as religious leaders and theologians whose aims are to promote inter-religious conversation and understanding, the author argues that this approach is 'elitist' and that in reality, people do not make sharp distinctions between religions, nor do they separate political, economic, social and cultural beliefs and practices from their religious traditions.
Case studies from villages in southern India explore how Hindu, Muslim and Christian communities interact in numerous ways that break the neat categories often used to describe each religion. Swamy argues that those who promote dialogue are ostensibly attempting to overcome the separate identities of religious practitioners through understanding, but in fact, they re-enforce them by encouraging a false sense of separation. The Problem with Interreligious Dialogue: Plurality, Conflict and Elitism in Hindu-Christian-Muslim Relations provides an innovative approach to a central issue confronting Religious Studies, combining both theory and ethnography.
Описание: Offers an invitation to rethink our understanding of Turkish literature as a tale of two `others`. The book prepares the ground for a history of literature which uncouples language and religion and recreates the spaces of dialogue and exchange that have existed in late Ottoman Turkey between members of various ethno-religious communities.

Описание: The fascinating story of the failed `journey to Orthodoxy` by the Oxford Movement of the Anglican Church in the 19th century.
Описание: As a leading movement in contemporary Turkey with a universal educational and inter-faith agenda, the G len movement aims to promote creative and positive relations between the West and the Muslim world and to articulate a critically constructive position on such issues as democracy, multi-culturalism, globalisation, and interfaith dialogue in the context of secular modernity. Many countries in the predominantly Muslim world are in a time of transition and of opening to democratic development of which the so-called "Arab Spring" has seen only the most recent and dramatic developments. Particularly against that background, there has been a developing interest in "the Turkish model" of transition from authoritarianism to democracy.
The Muslim World and Politics in Transition includes chapters written by international scholars with expertise in relation to the contexts that it addresses. It discusses how the G len movement has positioned itself and has sought to contribute within societies - including the movement's home country of Turkey - in which Muslims are in the majority and Islam forms a major part of the cultural, religious and historical inheritance.
The movement and initiatives inspired by the Turkish Muslim scholar Fethullah G len began in Turkey, but can now be found throughout the world, including in both Europe and in the 'Muslim world'. Bloomsbury has a companion volume edited by Paul Weller and Ihsan Yilmaz on European Muslims, Civility and Public Life: Perspectives on and From the Gulen Movement.

Описание: This book will be of interest to historians of Buddhism, Chinese religion and Taiwanese society, and to those with an interest in interfaith dialogue more generally.
In the latest discussion on the relations between religions, it has often been argued that monotheism necessarily leads to intolerance and exclusivism. A religion which claims to worship «the one and only true God» is inevitably forced to reject every religious behaviour and practices of «the Other». But is this really the case? This volume contains contributions which discuss the major question: What are the instruments and the strategies used in different religious settings where interreligious encounter is part of daily life? Most of the contributions concentrate on the challenges of theology in the context of India. A special focus will be on approaches for interreligious coexistence derived from Biblical or Systematic Theology.

Описание: This book guides the reader to the emerging Ecozoic Era when humans will be present upon the Earth in a mutually enhancing manner. Indeed, this book calls for an Ecozoic spirituality that is timely and much needed. It also illustrates an important direction for theology and spirituality and for deep ecumenism that is yet to be fully realized and opens more doors for such dialogue. By giving special attention to the integral relationship among God, the cosmos, and humanity, the works of Thomas Berry (1914–2009, USA) and Zhou Dunyi (1017–1073, China) provide insights that speak to the current ecological crisis, a cosmological context for developing an Ecozoic spirituality, while helping to advance clear values and ethical parameters that lead to a more authentic human presence on Earth.
Описание: The notion of Interreligious Studies signals a new academic perspective on the study of religion, characterized by a relational approach. Interreligious Studies defines the essential features of interreligious studies compared with alternative conceptions of religious studies and theology. The book discusses pressing and salient challenges in interreligious relations, including interreligious dialogue in practice and theory, interfaith dialogue and secularity, confrontational identity politics, faith-based diplomacy, the question of interfaith learning in school, and interreligious responses to extremism. Interreligious Studies is a cutting-edge study from one of the most important voices in Europe in the field, Oddbjorn Leirvik, and includes case study material from his native Norway including interreligious responses to the bomb attack in Norway on 22nd July 2011, as well as examples from a number of other national and global contexts Expanding discussions on interreligious dialogue and the relationship between religions in new and interesting ways, this book is a much-needed addition to the growing literature on interreligious studies.

Описание: In this book, Joshua Ezra Burns describes the birth of Christianity as a function of the Jewish past. He examines how the authors of Judaism`s earliest surviving memories of Christianity speak to the perspectives of rabbinic observers who were conditioned by the unique circumstances of their encounters with Christianity to recognize its adherents as fellow Jews.
Описание: Insofar as the twentieth century has often been referred to as the ecumenical century, the twenty-first seems poised to become known as the century of World Christianity. Into this situation, the present study seeks to show the ongoing relevance of Wolfhart Pannenbergs ecclesiological and ecumenical proposals and, in doing so, finds that his eschatologically-oriented and historically-rooted emphasis upon an open-ended distinctiveness is exactly the kind of corrective that the emerging theological paradigm of World Christianity needs if it wants not only to stay contextually open-ended, but remain distinctively Christian in outlook and character as well. Towards that end, the book begins with the story of ecclesiologys definitional expansion (from the time of the Reformation to now) before tracing the biographical and ideational roots of Pannenbergs overall programme. The study then proceeds by outlining the main contours of Pannenbergs ecclesiology and ecumenism, especially as such pertain to World Christianity. In this regard, several facets of Pannenbergs thought are highlighted for consideration, including his understanding of the church as sign of the kingdom, his doctrine of participation in Christ, his reassertion of the churchs missionary task, his (underdeveloped) personalist and social thought-structures, his (ironically relevant) Constantinianism, his (directly relevant yet abstract) notion of creative love, and his views concerning contextualization and the ecumenical potential of the Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed of 381. While much that is here developed serves as a healthy corrective for an emerging theological paradigm that is still maturing, some surprising critical insights arise that also flow the other way.
