The third conference of ESITIS will consider broad themes dealing with the study of religions and theology in a changing Europe, the question of power relations, intercultural 'translation' and the integrity of traditions, and the relevance of contextual theology for the intercultural and interreligious developments in both Eastern and Western Europe. More specifically, there will be a focus on the encounter of religions in South East Europe, especially Muslims and Orthodox Christians. Both the Christians and the Muslims in these parts of Europe have "differences" among themselves in various countries, such as in Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, etc.Further details of the programme are published on the ESITIS website (www.esitis.org). The conference will have sessions for "short papers."
