| Riepilogo: | The future of our globalized world depends on the possibilities of participation. Who can participate in communication? Who is excluded from it? Also christian faith is involved in that. Long before the debate of globalization the Second Vatican Council pointed to it, when it emphasized the truth of faith, seen through the society of our times, neither outside of it, nor earlier or later, but here and now. The "people of God" finds its faith inside the actual society. Without that the gospel would get lost, for it is distinguishable only in the "signs of the time". It seems, Fundamental Theology has not yet considered this turn to society adequately. Too strictly it is bound to its two dominant trends of theory formation, to subject-oriented reasoning ("anthropological turn") and to consensus-oriented theory ("communio-theology"). Communication, however, differs both from subjective consciousness and from collective community. There is no doubt that according to those trends a theology based on communication theory would put the "word of God" in the centre, too. But for however clear the form of that word is (scripture and tradition), the topics are controversial. The frequently affirmed community in faith cannot be determined, nor can the individual belief hardly be known. Therefore this article suggests a Fundamental Theology which constructs the concept of faith along communication theory. On the line it argues towards four aims: 1. Communication is not to be confused with individual action or consensus, but comprehended as an autonomous reality. 2. A concept of faith based on communication theory is gained from an interdisciplinary horizon, including above all sociology. 3. In order not to trivialize the concept of faith, it overcomes one-dimensional models (e. g. of signal-transmission or information-processing), but considers the complexity of social reality in which the conception itself is involved. 4. It's concept of faith is presented from within, on the basis of the "word of God", which is accepted on its own in the society (autopistis), that is by communication. |
