Tradition and modernization: variants of combination. Religious response
Interaction between different confessions and religious organizations is basically the only unambiguous tool appropriate for starting the dialogue aimed at determination of ideals for the development of the global community in the era of lost moral values and spiritual direction; formation of the society development via modernization based on traditional fundamental values.
Main vectors of discussion:
- Interdependence of tradition and modernization;
- Identity preservation in the dialogue of religions;
- Religion’s response for the crisis of ideas of the society;
- Dialogue of religions in the context of global social disruptions.
