Due to the critical thinking of enlightment and political changes, Christianity in Europe has lost the central position in society.
Werner Ustorf, for nearly thrirty years one of the leading missiologists world-wide does not only analyse the interaction of mission and individual, the construction of »Self« and »Other« in the context of mission. He also proves the analytic strength of theology in order to conceptualise the future of the Christian experience in Europe. Ustorf shows that apart from the primal dimension of faith even in a traditional way, the validity of non-religious interpretation, and critical trust in transcendence will be the core-elements of the new interculturation of Christianity in Europe.
