| Publisher Description: Due to his critical theory on religion Karl Barth (1886-1968) is considered as a representative of a theology which is incapable of dialogue and which hinders the debate both with the modern and with non-Christian religions. However, representatives of non-Christian religions and ecumenism are highly interested in Barth's theology. The present volume offers a fundamental reflection in which Barth's critical theory on religion is analysed on the basis of contemporary religious pluralism. Furthermore, representatives of five leading religious traditions present Barth's reception of their religion and their own perception of his theology. The volume terminates with an analysis of the meaning of Barth's theory on religion and his criticism for the ecumenical dialogue. |
