This volume surveys the field and maps future directions in this expanding and important area of research. Both established experts and new voices address typological debates, comparative theology, multiple religious belonging or identity, and how dialogue between different religious traditions affects our understanding of these issues. Different perspectives and traditions are represented, and, while focusing upon debates in Christian theology, voices and perspectives from a range of religious traditions are also included. This volume is an essential tool for research students and established scholars working within the theology of religions and interreligious studies.

This book is not the end of the debate.\" Risto Jukko, in: Islam and Christian–Muslim Relations, Vol. 28.4 (2017).  \"While those seeking a systematic text or homogeneous viewpoint may be disappointed, I would contend that one of the strengths [of this book] lies in the very convergence of different and sometimes dissonant perspectives. (...) This volume is a fitting tribute to [Alan] Race's contribution to this vital area of work. It is also a testament to the abiding significance of the paradigm which he established, a model which remains as vital as ever in an age of ever-deeper dialogue, of religious hyper-diversity, of new congruences and of multiple religious identity and of new ways of religious belonging.\" Stephen Bishop, Leicester Diocese, in: Insight, Vol. 15.2 (2017).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents  Foreword: Three Paths — Whither? – Leonard Swidler Introduction: Theologies of Religions in the Twenty-First Century – Elizabeth Harris, Paul Hedges, and Shanthikumar Hettiarachchi\t\t\t  Section I - Disputing and Using the Typology  Chapter 1.
