Book Religion  Conflict  and Peacebuilding

Download or read book Religion Conflict and Peacebuilding written by Stipe Odak and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides fresh insights into the role of religious leaders in conflict transformation and peacebuilding. Based on a large dataset of interviews with Christian and Muslim leaders in Bosnia and Herzegovina, it offers a contextually rich analysis of the main post-conflict challenges: forgiveness, reconciliation, and tragic memories. Designed as an inductive, qualitative research, it also develops an integrative theoretical model of religiously-inspired engagement in conflict transformation. The work introduces a number of new concepts which are relevant for both theory and practice of peacebuilding, such as Residue of Forgiveness, Degree Zero of Reconciliation, Ecumene of Compassion, and Phantomic Memories. The book, furthermore, proposes two correlated concepts – “theological dissonance” and “pastoral optimization” – as theoretical tools to describe the interplay between moral ideals and practical limitations. The text is a valuable resource for religious and social scholars alike, especially those interested in topics of peace, conflict, and justice. From the methodological standpoint, it is an original and audacious attempt at bringing together theological, philosophical, and political narratives on conflicts and peace through the innovative use of the Grounded Theory approach.

Book The Global Pontificate of Pius XII

Download or read book The Global Pontificate of Pius XII written by Simon Unger-Alvi and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2020, the Vatican opened its archives for the pontificate of Pius XII (1939-1958), the pope that led the Catholic Church during WWII, the Holocaust, and the beginning of the Cold War. The Global Pontificate of Pius XII brings together historians who were among the first to consult the previously unseen Vatican materials. These long-awaited records allow for an expansion of the current historiography beyond the pope’s biography. Methodologically, the volume works to transcend the rigidity of religious history and engage with new approaches in global, transnational, and postcolonial history to re-introduce questions surrounding religion into modern post-war historiography.

Book Called to Existence through Love    for Love

Download or read book Called to Existence through Love for Love written by John S. Hamlon and published by John Hamlon. This book was released on 2021-02-03 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Called to Existence through Love… for Love is the “do-it-yourself” version of an introductory class on John Paul II’s thought that has had a long and lively run. This tutorial is for those who like to poke their noses into places where they “don’t belong,” in this case, material considered too difficult for “non-academic” persons to comprehend. Although the target audience is the inquiring, motivated Catholic, the content is universal—one does not have to be Catholic to benefit from the thought of John Paul II and other notable sages like Edith Stein, Dietrich von Hildebrand, and Paul VI. Welcome to a timely look at love and truth, marriage and family!

Book Hitler s Pope

  • Author : John Cornwell
  • Publisher : Penguin
  • Release : 2000-10-01
  • ISBN : 1101202491
  • Pages : 452 pages

Download or read book Hitler s Pope written by John Cornwell and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2000-10-01 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “explosive” (The New York Times) bestseller that “redefined the history of the twentieth century” (The Washington Post ) This shocking book was the first account to tell the whole truth about Pope Pius XII's actions during World War II, and it remains the definitive account of that era. It sparked a firestorm of controversy both inside and outside the Catholic Church. Award-winning journalist John Cornwell has also included in this seminal work of history an introduction that both answers his critics and reaffirms his overall thesis that Pius XII fatally weakened the Catholic Church with his endorsement of Hitler—and sealed the fate of the Jews in Europe.

Book Mit Brennender Sorge

    Book Details:
  • Author : Pope Pius XI
  • Publisher : Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
  • Release : 2018-01-06
  • ISBN : 9781983631634
  • Pages : 26 pages

Download or read book Mit Brennender Sorge written by Pope Pius XI and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-06 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mit brennender Sorge, "With burning concern") On the Church and the German Reich is an encyclical of Pope Pius XI, issued during the Nazi era on 10 March 1937 (but bearing a date of Passion Sunday, 14 March). Written in German, not the usual Latin, it was smuggled into Germany for fear of censorship and was read from the pulpits of all German Catholic churches on one of the Church's busiest Sundays, Palm Sunday (21 March that year). The encyclical condemned breaches of the 1933 Reichskonkordat agreement signed between the German Reich and the Holy See. It condemned "pantheistic confusion," "neopaganism," "the so-called myth of race and blood," and the idolizing of the State. It contained a vigorous defense of the Old Testament with the belief that it prepares the way for the New. The encyclical states that race is a fundamental value of the human community which is necessary and honorable but condemns the exaltation of race, or the people, or the state, above their standard value to an idolatrous level.

Book The Holocaust and Catholic Conscience

Download or read book The Holocaust and Catholic Conscience written by Suzanne Brown-Fleming and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 1994-02-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American-born Cardinal Aloisius Muench (1889-1962) was a key figure in German and German-American Catholic responses to the Holocaust, Jews, and Judaism between 1946 and 1959. He was arguably the most powerful American Catholic figure and an influential Vatican representative in occupied Germany and in West Germany after the war. In this carefully researched book, which draws on Muench’s collected papers, Suzanne Brown-Fleming offers the first assessment of Muench’s legacy and provides a rare glimpse into his commentary on Nazism, the Holocaust, and surviving Jews. She argues that Muench legitimized the Catholic Church’s failure during this period to confront the nature of its own complicity in Nazism’s anti-Jewish ideology. The archival evidence demonstrates that Muench viewed Jews as harmful in a number of very specific ways. He regarded German Jews who had immigrated to the United States as "aliens," he believed Jews to be "in control" of American policy-making in Germany, he feared Jews as "avengers" who wished to harm "victimized" Germans, and he believed Jews to be excessively involved in leftist activities. Muench’s standing and influence in the United States, Germany, and the Vatican hierarchies gave sanction to the idea that German Catholics needed no examination of conscience in regard to the Church's actions (or inactions) during the 1940s and 1950s. This fascinating story of Muench’s role in German Catholic consideration—and ultimate rejection—of guilt and responsibility for Nazism in general and the persecution of European Jews in particular will be an important addition to scholarship on the Holocaust and to church history.

Book Eight Popes and the Crisis of Modernity

Download or read book Eight Popes and the Crisis of Modernity written by Russell Shaw and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2020 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assaults on the dignity and the rights of the human person have been central to the ongoing crisis of the modern era in the last hundred years. This book takes a searching look at the roots of this problem and the various approaches to it by the eight men who led the Catholic Church in the twentieth century, from Pope St. Pius X and his crusade against Modernism to Pope St. John Paul II and his appeal for a renewed rapprochement between faith and reason. Thus it offers a distinctive, illuminating interpretation of recent world events viewed through the lens of an ancient institution, the papacy. The fascinating story is told by a veteran observer of Church affairs through short profiles of the eight popes, which include crucial, often little-known facts. The book includes substantial excerpts from the writings of the popes that give important insights into their personalities and thinking. It also includes a useful overview of the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965) and its pivotal role in reshaping the Catholic Church. Serious and open-minded readers, Catholics and non-Catholics alike, as well as students of Church history will find this unique work an informative, timely, and inspiring guide to understanding many central events and issues of our times.
