The Benefit of Inter-religious Co-operation

Meer over het boek

Many societies, shaped by culture, religion and tradition that have grown over centuries, are transforming into multi-cultural and multi-religious societies. Logically, religious communities are also strongly affected by these demographic and cultural developments. Co-operation between different religions and confessions becomes increasingly important. The articles in this volume take a closer look at a number of developments in inter-religious co-operation. What challenges and opportunities do such collaborations offer? What are the benefits of interfaith dialogues and common actions? This collection of four essays addresses those questions using different scales of analysis and specific examples of inter-religious initiatives and dialogue. The articles are intended to provide an overview for interested readers and for those who are already involved in this field as well as information, contacts and opportunities to connect.
