Berlin Fellowship
Between 1961 and 1989 in East Germany, the Cold War border was crossed through the "Berlin Fellowship," an ecumenical visitation program. Under the watchful eye of East Germany's security police, the Stasi, East German Christians welcomed guests from the US into their congregations and homes for an hour, an evening, or a weekend of discussion, shared meals, and worship. The voice of 'the other' through Eastern recollections and perspectives on this unique form of koinonia reveal how fellowship can be missional and transformative. This book examines the intercultural history of the Berlin Fellowship during the Cold War. (Series: ContactZone. Explorations in Intercultural Theology - Vol. 14)
The Persistent Religious Gender Gap in the Netherlands in Times of Secularization, 1966-2015
Over the last 50 years, the Netherlands has undergone a process of massive secularisation, in terms of the decline of institutionalised religion. This study tests a wide range of explanations for this process, built on modernisation theory, with high quality survey data. In addition, despite modernisation and the rise of gender equality in the area of social structural location, a religious gender gap persists in the Netherlands with women being more religious than men. With a comprehensive model of social and psychological differences between Dutch men and women, this study contributes to an explanation for this gap.

Return to Sender
This collection of studies by American and European scholars explores the various ways in which American evangelicals found their way to postwar Europe, what they did there, and how they were received. With attention to the American and European organizations that brokered their mission, the social and political settings that framed their activities, and the mixed results of their efforts, these studies provide a much-needed overview how an important twentieth-century style of Christianity "returned" to Europe.
Zwischen Hakenkreuz und Sichel
Als genialer und produktiver Neutestamentler veränderte Ernst Lohmeyer den herrschenden Konsens in der neutestamentlichen Wissenschaft. Seine akademische Laufbahn wurde von fast zehn Jahren Wehrdienst sowohl im Ersten und wie auch im Zweiten Weltkriegen unterbrochen. Als Rektor der Universität Breslau wurde Lohmeyer wegen seines Widerstands gegen die Herrschaft der Nationalsozialisten in der Universität abgesetzt und an der Ostfront eingesetzt. Nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs – wieder als Rektor der Universität Greifswald – wurde Lohmeyer wegen seines Versuchs, eine intellektuelle freie Universität wiederherzustellen, von der Sowjetischen Geheimpolizei verhaftet und ermordet. Ein fünfzig Jahre dauerndes Verschweigen seines Schicksals folgte in der ehemaligen DDR. Diese Biographie erzählt Lohmeyers Lebensgeschichte, sie erforscht die Gründe für sein Verschwinden und seine Hinrichtung.
