Summary: | Abstract The article sketches the overall layout of the thematic issue of the ‘Journal of Religion and Transformation in Contemporary Societies ( JRAT )’ on Interreligious Dialogue ( IRD ) in context. It argues that an analysis of Interreligious Dialogue-activities in their socio-cultural contexts helps to counterbalance the long-standing individualistic bias of IRD -research. First, it presents a systematic description of the present state of the art that distinguishes two strands of IRD -research. Second, it argues for a European comparison, based upon the most recent findings from the ‘ SMRE – Swiss Metadatabase of Religious Affiliation in Europe’. The article closes with references to the structure of the present volume of JRaT to facilitate such a comparison. |
