This paper critically inquires into how »interreligious theology« is to be understood, distinguishing between position, methodology, and institutionalized space. The paper takes a spatial theory approach as it considers the theological quality of spaces of distance, devotion, and tactfulness. Methodologically, it reflects on whether the term »interreligious« is intended to refer to work done with texts, shared rituals, or the sharing of spaces - and what the implications of this may be. In view of the »outcomes« of interreligious theological work, the piece distinguishes between the religious worldview and the many truths. It unequivocally affirms the feasibility of an interreligious pursuit of theology on the basis of a confessionally grounded Christian identity.

Jahrhundert. Es wird deutlich, dass in den ersten 200 Jahren aus verschiedenen Grunden eine uberseeische Missionsarbeit nicht unternommen wurde. Die Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts entstehenden Missionsgesellschaften konnten als freie Werke gegenuber den Kirchen ein selbstandiges missionarisches Handeln ermoglichen, sie Missionen blieben aber den deutschen Landeskirchen eng verbunden. In der Zeit des Imperialismus (nach 1883) geraten die Missionen in Loyalitatskonflikte zwischen den einheimischen Bevolkerungen etwa in Afrika und Asien und den Kolonialverwaltungen der europaischen Machte. Es wird das komplizierte Beziehungsgefuge anhand der Norddeutschen Mission in Togo nachgezeichnet. Die Veranderungen des 20. Jahrhunderts bringen eine Integration der bisher weitgehend unabhangigen Missionsgesellschaften in die Strukturen der Landeskirchen. Aus Missionsgesellsc...

At the same time, the terms world Christianity and anthropology of Christianity have also become established. This article inquires into the profile of intercultural theology against the other two terms and defines the subject as in-between theology with regard to such factors as audience, media, power, methodology, plurality, and connectivity. Looking forward, the author identifies current challenges and proposes that intercultural theology should be understood as a both descriptive and normative discipline, that the driving force behind it is the universal-missionary truth claim of the New Testament message of salvation, and that—as a subject with a primarily systematic orientation—it is committed to a comprehensive understanding of reality and theology.
