In Theology of Religions Graham Adams maps and analyses the field of ‘theology of
religions' (ToR) and its various typologies, examining the assumptions in how religion
is assessed. The purpose is to identify how contributions to ToR select and deselect
material and trajectories, editing according to presuppositions and interests. Adams'
analysis consciously relies on Andrew Shanks' Hegelian notion of ‘truth-as-openness'
(divine hospitality) as it illuminates three dynamics, or ‘scandals', within ToR.
The first, concerned with how a religion's particularity or identity is constructed,
is subdivided between ‘particularity transcended' and ‘particularity re-centred',
along the lines of Jenny Daggers' postcolonial insights. The second concerns the interactions
when one religion engages an Other's strangeness, and the third is concerned with
how religions aim to transform socio-political systems that feign or obstruct universality,
so as to effect ever greater solidarity. The text notes key trends, beyond Christianity
and including deepening interdisciplinarity, and potential developments from a critical
but constructive standpoint.
