The Hidden "God"
"Theology" means "discourse about god." Christian theology is a reflection on the Christian faith in which God takes a central place. Therefore, the Christian theology of other religions seeks to understand if and how "God" as Christians call their experience of Him may be present in the thought, devotion, and ritual of those other religions. Christian theology of Buddhism is then a Christian reflection on the Buddhist faith in "god" or "gods." Now, Buddhist teaching contains many seeming contradictions (as does Christian teaching). Accepting these, and looking for clues to understand how they came about and how they might be reconciled, is not only an intellectual challenge but also a religious duty. The Hidden "God" feels like a detective story, taking the reader along on an exacting investigation of the manifold themes, concepts, and persons of the different Buddhist faith traditions in order to discern whether they can be related to the Christian understanding of who God is. The result, which is both complex and simple, will enable readers to take steps toward uniting both religions in the mystery that God or the Dharma is.

Political Change and Constitutionalism in Africa
Political Change and Constitutionalism in Africa examines the complexities of government and obstacles facing constitutional democracy in transitional African societies. The chapters provide a critical, conceptual framework to probe, interpret and understand the dimensions of current and impending challenges to constitutional government in the African continent. The contributors explain why deep inequalities and harsh repression persist in most transitional African countries, despite constitutionally guaranteed rights and the ongoing, practical efforts to expand participation through political liberalization. The book demonstrates the importance of sustaining in public confidence in democracy and provides provocative ideas about how to deal with new, prodigious configurations of power that are stubbornly resisting real institutional change. Political Change and Constitutionalism in Africa will be of interest to scholars of African politics and constitutional politics.
形相と空
実践と思索の精緻なパノラマ。インド仏教と西洋近世哲学の両域の研究に大きな足跡を残しながら精進を続けてきた著者の豊かな結実であり、同時に華麗な開花でもある。「形相と空」という端的な標題に問題の核心が鮮明に、そして大きくあらわれている。人類霊性史・世界思想史における最も重要なドラマのひとつ、ギリシャ文化の「形相」とインド仏教の「空」との出会いと交流、相互媒介の構造とプロセスが、「アポロン仏」の成立のみならず、仏の形像に想念を集中する初期大乗仏教の般舟三昧から現代の西田、田辺の哲学にいたるまで、実践と思索の両輪において精緻に具体的に描き出されるパノラマに接し、あらためて「形相と空」が現代世界における私たち自身の問題として活性化するのを覚えるであろう。
De getemde mens
Moraal was sinds mensenheugenis het exclusieve domein van filosofie en theologie, totdat bioloog Charles Darwin in The Descent of Man (1871) als eerste opperde: ‘Elk dier dat met uitgesproken sociale instincten is toegerust (…) zou onvermijdelijk een moraal of geweten verwerven zodra zijn intellectuele vermogens even goed of bijna even goed ontwikkeld zouden zijn als die van de mens.’ Pas een eeuw later kwam het onderzoek naar moraal goed op gang in empirische wetenschapsdisciplines als biologie, ethologie, culturele antropologie, psychologie en neurowetenschappen. De getemde mens laat zien hoe ver de fascinerende inzichten die dat onderzoek al heeft opgeleverd, zijn doorgedrongen in V...
Interiorità e finitudine: la coscienza in cammino
In questo libro l'autrice compie il tentativo disarmante di ripensare la condizione umana assediata dalla finitudine e dall'imperfezione, alla luce dei contributi formidabili ma divergenti negli scopi e nei metodi che le scienze fisiche, per un verso, e le antiche discipline spirituali, per l'altro, hanno dato alla costruzione di una società planetaria. Nella prima parte, a fisici di vaglia, convinti che la scienza "salverà" il mondo e impegnati a puntare alle strabilianti conquiste tecnologiche di un futuro alle porte, esperti tibetani di meditazione profonda tra i quali il XIV Dalai Lama e ricercatori buddhisti di vari paesi mostrano a loro volta in teoria e in pratica che i metodi di co...
