Description:
|
The phenomenon of globalisation has unleashed unprecedented forces in the spheres of politics, culture, economics, science and technology, and international relations posing a major challenge to faith communities around the world. Dynamics such as the homogenisation of culture, the operation of market forces and the continuous advent and proliferation of new technologies, particularly in the sphere of communication, have created a new form of consumerism that is global in scope, with its own logic of operation and its own secularised value system. These unprecedented dynamics pose multi-faceted challenges to faith communities around the world, and arguably, to the future of faith in a new, globalised world. This conference is set to address these challenges.
