Description

Just about fifty years ago, in its declaration on religious freedom at the Second Vatican Council, the Catholic Church programmatically dispensed with political coercion as a means of enforcing its claim to truth. This act of self-imposed restriction with regard to religious claims to truth is exceptional in the history of religions. It is still extremely difficult to explain even today how such a traditional institution as the Catholic Church could have altered its position so fundamentally. In this volume the authors dispute how the Church came to its position, what the reasons and motives were for its repositioning, what shape this process of change took, and the steps involved in the change: What were the characteristics, circumstances and dynamics of the path of Catholicism to recognizing religious freedom? Mit dem II. Vatikanischen Konzil (1962-1965) änderte die katholische Kirche ihre Haltung zur Religionsfreiheit grundlegend und erkannte von nun an das Menschenrecht auf freie Religionsausübung an. Wie konnte es zu diesem erstaunlichen Lernprozess einer Religionsgemeinschaft kommen, zumal gerade die katholi-sche Kirche durch eine präzise Definition und strikte Konti-nuität ihrer Lehre geprägt ist? Unter welchen Bedingungen und Voraussetzungen kann Religionsgemeinschaften ihre eigene Modernisierung gelingen? Der Band folgt der These, dass eine ganze Reihe unterschiedlicher - innerkirchlicher wie äußerer - Faktoren die Erneuerung der Haltung der Kirche zum Verhältnis von Religion und Politik, von Kirche und Staat ermöglichten. Letztlich handelt es sich um den Verzicht der Kirche auf politische Gewalt, um die Beschränkung auf eine zivilgesellschaftliche Rolle, die exemplarischen Charakter haben könnte für den Gewaltverzicht religiöser Traditionen.
