| Summary: | The article presents three of the most relevant models for dialogue and agreement during the so-called "modern stage" of the ecumenical movement, this is from the historic 1910 Edinburgh Missionary Conference till the beginning of the "Ecumenical Winter". First, it introduces the Minimal model in relation to the Bonn Agreement between the Anglican Communion and the Old Catholic Church of the Union of Utrecht, its advantages and shortcomings. Second, the article studies the Comparative model as the main methodological framework of the first and second Faith and Order conferences in Lausanne (1927) and Edinburgh (1937), it also explains its inability to transcend the descriptive level, its "statistical" nature, and its inadequacy to promote negotiated points of encounter among Christian traditions. Finally, it analyzes the Convergence model regarding the common structure and language of convergence documents and how it became a means to limited consensus, especially after the consolidation of global ecumenical fellowships. |
