Misi dalam Realitas Pascakolonial dan Pluralisme Agama di Asia
Keywords:
mission, Asia, postcolonial, religious pluralism, prophetic dialogue, perichoresisAbstract
This article discusses the mission of post-colonial realities and religious pluralism in Asia. Asia is a region in the world that has experienced colonialism by Western countries. This historical background then influenced the identity of Christianity in Asia. In addition to the reality of colonialism, Asia is a region rich in the reality of religious pluralism. Therefore, a postcolonial perspective and religious pluralism are needed to build a mission in Asia. This article uses a qualitative method by developing the thoughts of key figures and their mission concepts from Asia. This article explores the realities of postcolonial Asia and Asian Christianity amid religious plurality. Ultimately, this article offers several mission paradigms in the postcolonial reality and religious pluralism in Asia: the de-absolutization of Christian identity, prophetic dialogue, and mission perichoresis.
