In the 21st century we are being forced to observe how violentlypeople can react to crises of religious and cultural identity.But the question should not be whether people with differentcultural and religious backgrounds want to live together; weshould rather ask how coexistence can succeed in such a waythat the world may evolve in the direction of a just peace - andalso preserve the integrity of creation for future generations.This volume of the »Berlin Edition for Ecumenism, Mission andDialogue« offers an English-language collection of importantessays on the subjects »Mission and Dialogue«, »Claim to Truthand Tolerance« and the relationship between religion and statein a pluralistic society.
