The rise of populism and nationalism in the West have raised
concerns about the fragility of liberal political values, chief
among them tolerance. But what alternative social resources exist
for cultivating the interpersonal relationships and mutual goodwill
necessary for sustainable peace? And how might the lived practices
of religious communities carry potential to reinterpret or
re-circuit these interpersonal tensions and transform the
relationship with the cultural "other" (Fremde) from "foe" (Feind)
to "friend" (Freund)? This volume contributes a unique analysis of
this shifting discourse by viewing the contemporary socio-political
upheaval through the lens of Friedrich Schleiermacher's theology,
with a focus on the themes of friendship, interpersonal
subjectivity, and sociability as a path beyond mere tolerance. Each
of the essays of the volume is written by an internationally
recognized scholar in the field, and the volume examines
Schleiermacher's novel reflections across multiple social contexts,
including North America, Great Britain, western Europe, and South
Africa. As these essays demonstrate, the implications of this
conversation continue to resound in contemporary religious
communities and political discourse.
