Foucault, Christianity and Interfaith Dialogue develops a new model
for interfaith dialogue using the work of the French historian of
ideas, Michel Foucault. The author argues that it is the injustice
done to the 'Other' by Roman Catholic, Protestant and other centred
and unitary models of religious pluralism that allows the
introduction of Foucault's de-centring of transcendence and human
reason as an alternative model for understanding religious
diversity and the role it ought to play, in the constitution of the
self and the making of society. This Foucaultian approach provides
a new direction for interfaith dialogue in the modern world and
leads to an ethical rather than a nihilistic position while
fostering a non-unitary theology of religious pluralism and an
open-textured process of self-transformation.
This book is a comparative study of a number of dependent and independent tropical islands and archipelagos.
