Beskrivning
A study of inter-civilisational hermeneutics drawing on diverse classical and modern sources to construct a new hermeneutical theory for a postcolonial age.In response to the religious and spiritual transition experienced in our modern world, Chung creates a postcolonial framework for inter-religious exchange, focussing on issues of interpretation, moral deliberation and ethical praxis. He investigates the relationship between hermeneutical theory and ethics and produces a new theory for intercivilizational dialogue, studying theological-philosophical theory of interpretation, ethics, the experience of cultural hybridity and inter-civilisational alliance, set within multiple horizons and diverse contexts.

Recensioner i media

Chung's book is an important contribution to interreligious solidarity towards compassionate justice within the context of imperial capitalism creating a dangerous crisis for human life and earth. He creatively awakens the wisdom of Confucianism and Daoism in postcolonial perspective in order to reread history from below, giving the victims of western civilization a voice and designing a new epistemology transcending the dominating reductionist rationalism. This is liberation theology at its best.
