Beschreibung

In this volume, on the basis of three consultations which
took place in Seoul and Geneva (2016, 2017, 2018),
theologians from Yonsei University’s College of Theology in
Seoul, South Korea, and from the Theological Faculty at the
University of Geneva reflect together on three of the main
challenges facing Christian theology today. First, questions
related to religious pluralism and multiple religious
belonging are addressed. Second, the `promise’ of an
enhanced human being through technology and other means is
discussed. Third, the reality of the threat humanity
represents to our ecosystem is considered. Each of these
themes is examined from a Korean as well as from a Western
European perspective, for Christian theology, in our day,
can no longer afford to remain limited to its own
geographical context.


Christophe Chalamet is Professor of
Systematic Theology at the University of Geneva
(Switzerland).

Hyun-Shik Jun is Professor of Systematic Theology at
Yonsei University’s College of Theology in Seoul, Korea.
