The Catholic Church and Modernity in Europe

Panc Beentjes (ed.)
ISBN 978-3-643-90023-4
Number 3, 2009

The tense relationship between the Catholic Church and modernity, particularly in Europe, gives rise to a whole range of questions and analyses which are described and discussed in this volume. It has a historical overview of the evolution and diversity of the Church after 1945. Also attention is given to the interaction between theology and contemporary postmodern secular culture, the self-image of the Church in the wake of Vatican II, the contribution of the Catholic tradition to the contemporary pluralistic world, and to modern culture influencing Catholic tradition.

Leiblichkeit und Menschenwürde, Interkulturell Zugänge

Harm Goris (ed.)
ISBN 3-8258-9284-0
Number 2, 2006

In jeder Kultur reflektieren Ideen und Praktiken in Bezug auf den menschlichen Leib wie man den Menschen und dessen Würde versteht. Heutige kulturelle und medizinisch-technische Entwicklungen stellen neue Fragen an traditionelle Auffassungen von Leiblichkeit. Wie können diese Fragen von der Perspektive der interkulturellen Ethik her erörtert werden, insbesondere was die Organspende betrifft?

In every culture, ideas and practices concerning the human body reflect what people think about the human person and his/her dignity. Contemporary cultural and medical-technical developments pose new questions to traditional attitudes to bodiliness. How can these questions be addressed from the perspective of intercultural ethics, in particular with regard to organ donation?

Doris Nauer (ed.)

Number 1, 2004

Research into the field of religious leadership in relation to Christian identity is highly complex. What should be meant by religious leadership? What do we really mean if we talk about Christian identity? And most of all: what implies the and between religious leadership and Christian identity? Is there a necessary substantial relation between both? If so, how has leadership contributed in the past to Christian identity and how will it in the contemporary context stimulate a Christian identity?
