The Grand International Challenges

The 21st century is characterised by global contexts and challenges: World nutrition, digitalisation, climate protection, migration, sustainability, gender justice and pandemics. These pressing questions of our time have an impact on all areas of public and private life and largely determine the present. Due to their global dimension and relevance, some now casually speak of the 'world-saving topics'. Besides politics, economics and society, they also affect theological ethics in a fundamental way. In order to broaden the horizon of the problem, this volume is dedicated to these global topics from a theological-ethical perspective. The perspective of the 'Global South' is also deliberately given a voice and a development policy perspective of the 'Global International Challenges' is undertaken.
