This talk with Arthur J. Keefer (Faculty of Divinity) discusses interfaith dialogue as a way for individuals and institutions to best approach religion. This represents the endeavour of faith groups to understand each other. Recent events in Africa and Asia suggest that governments should encourage such exchange, and I further claim that interfaith dialogue is a beneficial approach to religion in the current context. However, how might faith and political bodies understand and structure such dialogue? Arthur hopes to contribute to the conversation by providing a framework for approaching interfaith dialogue. The strength of this framework appears in that it classifies different types of dialogue, defines dialogue, and accounts for the central obstacle to dialogue. Furthermore, he hopes to locate the main concerns of CGHR , such as law, human rights, and peace-building, within this framework, offering a resource for Cambridge’s multi-disciplinary research group.
