Karl Barth's Reception in Korea: Focusing on Ecclesiology in Relation to Korean Christian Thought (Studien zur Interkulturellen Geschichte des ... in the Intercultural History of Christianity)

This book describes the unique relationship between Christianity and Confucianism. Korean Confucianism played an important role in the explosive growth of the Christian community and provided a basic foundation for the reception of Barth’s theology in Korea. The author analyses whether Barth’s ecclesiology, especially his theology of mission, pays sufficient attention to different cultures and religions; and whether Barth’s Christocentric theology is compatible with Korean Confucianism.
