Theology 'In Exit' for a Better World (en Inglés) - Francis-Vincent Anthony;Gnana Patrick

This Reprint of "Theology 'In Exit' for a Better World" deals with the intersecting domains of church, society, and academy, geographical contexts, and methodological choices, pointing to the complexity and diversity of public theological discourse. The first set of four articles focuses on the social concerns of the ecclesial domain: one of them addresses ecclesiology with a democratic sensitivity of the people of God, while another focuses on Christian communities' engagement in the local civil society as a minority religious community. In tune with these, the third paper takes up the underlying anthropological dimension, and the fourth one, the ethical dimension of human social flourishing. The second set of three articles addresses religious pluralism in the social domain. One of them underscores the necessity of comparative public theology for promoting interreligious education, whereas the second points to the nature of public religious pedagogy amidst religious pluralism. The third contribution focuses on the lifestyle of a religious community, specifically the Muslim community, in the multireligious context. The final two articles of this Reprint focus on the academic domain of secular sciences, one taking a sociological perspective on structural denial of human dignity among youth and the other a more psychological approach to exploring emotional intelligence, faith, and time perspectives among religious nuns. Having recourse to empirical methodology, the last four contributions focus on the personal agency of young and adult believers in the sphere of public theology.
