world theology  

Definición

  • World theology can refer either to the convergence of theological ideas from different religious traditions around the world or to the way theological speculation within a single tradition has changed to respond to the globalization of culture and the global diasporas of religious communities. Wilfred Cantell Smith, in Towards a World Theology, has explored the former kind of thinking, the way theological ideas in different religious traditions have much in common and interact in pluralistic settings.
