JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Religion and Nationhood: Insider and outsider
Book SynopsisReligion is both too dangerous and too important to be left to any single belief community, academic association or political group. The challenges of secularity and competing belief systems require attention within the curriculum of every state school. The authors of this volume, more than thirty authoritative practitioners and scholars, illuminate the context for religion in public education nationally and globally. Their principal focus is on Religious Education in England, with its distinctive matrix of Christianity, plurality of beliefs and secularity. The complementary attention to RE provision in eight other countries and within Europe is revealing of each and a source for comparative comment on the 'English approach'. Religion is understood universally as referring to the deepest meanings which we have generated to live with, both individually and collectively. The peculiarity of England with a constitutional monarchy and established church is identified as an enabling feature for understanding, inclusivity and openness rather than separation and mutual ignorance, but that RE is threatened by government inattention.

Book SynopsisThe contributions of this volume are written from a historical perspective and look at the specific form the relationship between church and state took in three different countries, with special attention being paid to their respective strengths and weaknesses.The separation of church and state is one of the most important advances of modern times. Yet Germany, France and the United States took very different routes to achieving this. The present situation is full of questions that were approached in the papers given at the 14th Dietrich Bonhoeffer Lecture Series 2010 in Mainz and were answered from various perspectives. How and for what reason did these very different models come to be? What are their respective strengths and weaknesses? More recently, these questions have again cropped up in the discussion surrounding the role of Islam in Western societies.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Ringen Um Versohnung: Versohnungsprozesse
Book SynopsisSeit der zweiten Halfte des 20. Jahrhunderts wird im politisch-gesellschaftlichen Kontext der eigentlich religios konnotierte Begriff "Versohnung" immer haufiger zur Beschreibung von Konfliktlosungsstrategien benutzt. Doch was bedeutet Versohnung bezogen auf Politik und Gesellschaft? Welche Faktoren sind relevant fur Versohnungsprozesse? Womit lassen sich Erfolge, aber auch Hindernisse und Ruckschlage auf dem Weg der Versohnung erklaren? In dem vorliegenden Band gehen internationale Forscherinnen und Forscher aus Geschichtswissenschaft, Politikwissenschaft, Soziologie und Theologie diesen Fragen nach. In ihren Beitragen wird Versohnung auf zwei Ebenen reflektiert. Auf der ersten Ebene handelt es sich um ubergreifende Analysen von Faktoren, die Versohnungsprozesse beeinflussen. Auf der zweiten Ebene werden bestimmte Aspekte von Versohnungsprozessen an einschlagigen Fallbeispielen aus dem Kontext des deutsch-franzosischen und russisch-finnischen Verhaltnisses, des ehemaligen Jugoslawiens, Sud- und Nordkorea, der DDR und Sudafrika veranschaulicht.Alle Beitrage machen deutlich, dass, obwohl unterschiedlichen Versohnungsprozessen bestimmte Elemente gemeinsam sind, Versohnung als ein sich dynamisch wandelnder, immer kontextgebundener Aushandlungsprozess erscheint, der multilateral von Akteuren aus Kirchen, Politik und Gesellschaft getragen wird.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Vom politischen Anreiz zur liberalen Überzeugung:
Book SynopsisWährend Religionsgemeinschaften häufig zugeschrieben wird, inhärent demokratieaffin oder demokratiefeindlich zu sein, stehen sie tatsächlich in einer komplexen wechselseitigen Beziehung zu ihrer Gesellschaft. Ob eine religiöse Gemeinschaft ein liberaldemokratisches politisches System bejaht, wird entscheidend von der Erfahrung religiöser Freiheit in diesem System abhängen. Religionspolitik kann hier ansetzen und durch die kooperative Einbindung der Religionsgemeinschaften Anreizstrukturen schaffen, innerhalb derer ein demokratie- und liberalismusfreundliches religiöses Ethos gefördert wird. Theologische Vorbehalte gegenüber dem demokratischen Staat können so durch positive praktische Erfahrungen mit Politik und Rechtsordnung überwunden werden. Am Beispiel der Kooperation von Staat und Kirchen in der westdeutschen Bildungs- und Verteidigungspolitik nach 1945 zeichnet Fabian Poetke eine erfolgreiche Integrationsentwicklung dieser Art nach.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Forschungen zur systematischen und ökumenischen
Book SynopsisContemporarily Theology and Political Sciences are on the way of reinventing Erik Peterson (1890-1960) as a central figure in the discourses of 1920s to 1950s. The volumes of his "Ausgewählte Schriften" give us insight into a thinking of high inner tensions, which was developed in an intellectual exchange with many important dialogue partners. First of all, Peterson's concept of the Political is of a high interest. Peterson formed this concept in a constant discussion with the famous and notorious jurist Carl Schmitt. In the early 30s their friendship an intellectual partnership broke because of their different statements to the totalized Political and the national socialist ideology. Peterson confronted the political Totalitarianism with an apocalyptical concept and image of the church as an independent public sphere, which has its main publicity through the worship in front of God's throne in the community of the earthly church and the heavenly assembly of angels. From this specific concept of publicity Peterson got an eminently critical power of judgement against political totalitarianism, which he viewed as the consequent self fulfilment of modernity. On his way Peterson converted from Lutheran Protestantism to Roman Catholicism in 1930. Until today his strongly liturgical and dogmatical shaped theology is a challenge for the search for a forthcoming ecumenical church.This volume is the first monograph about Peterson from a protestant perspective. Roger Mielke focuses on the concepts of the public and the political in Peterson's work - especially in relationship to Schmitt's project of a "Political Theology" and the intellectual exchange between Peterson and Schmitt. The author views the different contemporary discourses where the motives of Peterson's work are influential and has a special interest in the "Radical Orthodoxy"-discourse which is not yet received broadly in German speaking theology.

Silkworm Books / Trasvin Publications LP Mediums, Monks, and Amulets: Thai Popular
Book SynopsisMediums, Monks, and Amulets is a sophisticated yet accessible study of the state of popular Buddhist beliefs as they are practiced in Thailand today. Using a combination of focused case studies and analysis, Pattana Kitiarsa explores the nature and evolution of popular Buddhism over the past three decades by focusing on those individuals who practice, popularize, and profit from it. The case studies profiled include prominent spirit mediums and magic monks, the lottery fever surrounding the posthumous cult of folk singer Phumphuang Duangchan, the Chatukham-Rammathep amulet craze, and the cult of wealth attributed to preeminent monk Luang Pho Khun. It also explores the history of both popular and official opinion surrounding supernatural Buddhism, and its clashes with the rationalist, modernizing policies of Thailand's monarchy and government. Mediums, Monks, and Amulets contests the viewpoint that supernatural elements within popular Buddhism are a symptom of the decline of the religion. Instead, it argues that this hybridity between traditional Buddhist beliefs and elements from other religions is in fact indicative of the health and wealth of Buddhism as it negotiates large-scale commercialization and global modernity.
