"Mission amidst Ideologies: Ideology and Hegemony in The Cape Town Commitment, Together towards Life, Evangelii Gaudium, and Mission of the Orthodox Church in Today's World"
2019
Abstract
This paper revisits the post-ideology thesis using Timothy Gorringe's distinction between ideology and hegemony. Employing this hermeneutic framework, the present paper then explores what 4 recent major documents on mission say on the theme of ideology.
Finally, the paper identifies what implications the discovered results might have for Christian mission as part of missio Dei today.
