Ustorf, Werner: Robinson Crusoe tries again

Missiology and European Constructions of 'Self' and 'Other' in a Global World 1789-2010. Selected essays edited by Roland Löffler. Werner Ustorf has been a leading missiologist worldwide for thirty years. This book not only analyses the interaction between mission and individual, the construction of the “self” and the “other” in a mission context, but also proves the analytical strength of theology in conceptualizing future Christian experiences in Europe. Ustorf illustrates that apart from traditional dimension of faith, a non-religious interpretation and critical trust in transcendence, is crucial for the formation of the new interculturation of Christianity in Europe. Thus, this book demonstrates how mission history can be transformed to a research concept for a global and pluralistic Christianity. 271 Seiten, gebunden (Research in Contemporary Religion; Vol. 9/Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht 2010) leichte Lagerspuren, Archivexemplarstempel auf Kopfschnitt/minor shelfwear, archive copy stamp on head cut
