NIAS Press All Religions Merge in Tranquebar: Religious
Book SynopsisWith globalization helping those who assert incompatible differences between their respective faiths, clashes of faith are increasingly common in different parts of the world. As a result, the study of religious conflict is also increasing. This book reverses that perspective by addressing a case of peaceful religious coexistence and social cohesion, namely in the South Indian village of Tranquebar (Tharangambadi) in Tamil Nadu. The birthplace of the Lutheran mission to India in 1706, this former Danish colonial settlement is now a famous heritage site. Although badly hit by the 2004 tsunami and today numerically dominated by members of a Hindu fishermen's caste, so far the town has managed to steer clear of the kind of religious conflicts too often found in a number of states in present-day India, including Tamil Nadu. This in-depth study, based on post-tsunami field studies in 2006 and 2007, examines the ways in which Hindus, Muslims and different Christian denominations interact in their day-to-day lives. Further, it demonstrates that the role played by religion - as far as social cohesion is concerned - is invariably tied up with several other factors (social stratification, economic development, educational institutions and such social communities as caste councils, etc.) and may serve as a basis for unity as well as division.

Peeters Publishers Dialogical Transformation: Exploring Avenues of
Book SynopsisIn the midst of growing religious plurality and diversity, interreligious dialogue has been an increasingly prominent response to this situation. The present project analyzes the history and significance of interreligious encounter, particularly in the U.S. American context but with implications that go beyond this setting. Focus is placed on the hermeneutical character of dialogue and its transformative power, examining what transformation means primarily through the lenses of philosophical hermeneutics. The transformation that arises from interfaith encounter involves a realized experience of truth disclosure. This event of growth is elucidated as transformation by integration, incorporating elements of the other into one’s own religious identity. This involves a renewal, expansion, and enhancement of understanding. For further illustration, the Buddhist and Christian traditions and their soteriological frameworks for transformation are explored. It is argued that interreligious dialogue, as a religious practice, engenders and supports the liberating transformation present in each religious worldview.
