"Babel is everywhere! Migrant readings from Africa, Europe and
Asia" sets out to explore the intersection between religion,
identity and migration. It does so by telling entangled histories
between diaspora/s and homeland and by analysing biblical in-roads
to issues and challenges of migration. It also explores hyphenated
identities and takes a close look at the role of migrant religion
specifically regarding issues of mission, of identity formation and
of ecclesial and societal formation. This book challenges static
notions of diaspora, stable identities and Western-centred notions
of Christianity and offers kaleidoscopic insights from Pentecostal,
migrant and intercultural perspectives.
In the latest discussion on the relations between religions, it has
often been argued that monotheism necessarily leads to intolerance
and exclusivism. A religion which claims to worship "the one and
only true God" is inevitably forced to reject every religious
behaviour and practices of "the Other". But is this really the
case? This volume contains contributions which discuss the major
question: What are the instruments and the strategies used in
different religious settings where interreligious encounter is part
of daily life? Most of the contributions concentrate on the
challenges of theology in the context of India. A special focus
will be on approaches for interreligious coexistence derived from
Biblical or Systematic Theology.
