| Summary: | This issue will bring Niebuhr’s theological methodology into a contextual experiment with the “the reality of human experience” in the Chinese context (which here includes mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan) and see how Niebuhr’s Christian ideas are relevant, receptive, and revisited in that context. The public issues he raised from Christian perspective on human nature, love and justice, and democracy are not only located in his culture and society but also apply to other global contexts, including the Chinese context. This issue consists of four contributions from Chinese scholars and one from an American expert on Niebuhr. |
