Religion

help or hindrance to development?

by

  • 1 Want to read

Der Niedergang der Religion in der westlichen Welt wurde oft als direkte Folge von Entwicklung gesehen, dieselben Tendenzen erwartete man bei gleichen Bedingungen auch im Globalen Süden. Der gegenwärtige Aufschwung der Religion im Globalen Süden und das wachsende Bewusstsein ihrer Bedeutung im Globalen Norden zeigen jedoch, dass Religion weiterhin eine wichtige Rolle spielt. Diese Aufsatzsammlung erkundet das faszinierende Wechselspiel zwischen Religion und Entwicklung sowie die negativen und positiven Potentiale von Religion in Entwicklungsprozessen. Reihe LWB-Dokumentation - Band 58.
