Thesis (DTh)--Stellenbosch University, 2012. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Due to the consciousness of religious pluralism and the need for peace amongst the religious communities of the world, the researcher considered, and herewith presents, the arguments for and against each of three traditional theological models for evaluating the relation between Christianity and other religions. Although this theological debate about the truth and salvific value of non- Christian views of life is important, and although the three approaches discussed each brings out important aspects that have to be considered in this debate, they were found to be limited in an important respect, namely, that they do not suggest practical strategic solutions for how Christians should relate to people who hold beliefs that differ from their own. With reference to the notion of an “ethic of embrace,” drawing on a number of New Testament texts as interpreted by theologians like Hans Küng, Miroslav Volf, Harold Nethland, Sam Storms, and Robert H. Stein, to name but a few, a strong case could be made for the necessity of such an ethic as a guideline for how the churches should interact with those who do not share their faith. It could be concluded that each of the three theoretical models, Particularism, Inclusivism and Pluralism, needs to be reconsidered from the perspective of an ethic of embrace. The researcher therefore inquired into the extent to which each of the theoretical models can be reconciled, and can indeed support and undergird, an ethic of embrace. Since, at least at face value, Particularism seems to raise most questions in this regard, it received particular attention. It was concluded that, also when applied in the context of the Particularist model, the ethics of embrace is the missing link that can help influence religiously motivated conflicts in a positive way. This allows for a more peaceable praxis as it not only addresses religious conflict in the world, but can also enable the Particularistic model to foster peace among religions and therefore, indirectly, peace among the nations of the world. The themes of reconciliation, tolerance, forgiveness and hospitality, which are interconnected with an ethic of embrace form an important part of chapter 5, with its focus on the truth and salvific significance of Jesus Christ reflected in his life as portrayed by Biblical witnesses. It is argued that He is not only the truth, or the one who spoke about the truth and his salvific significance, which is of central importance to the Particularistic model, but was able to demonstrate its practical application through the life He lived among humans. He demonstrated practically how the neighbour can be embraced in accordance with a particular understanding of the will of God. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek die potensiaal van ’n etiek van omhelsing (“embrace”) aangesien drie tradisionele modelle in die teologie van die godsdienste, naamlik Partikularisme, Inklusivisme en Pluralisme, nie voldoende is om vrede tussen die verskillende gelowe van die wêreld te bevorder nie. Argumente ten gunste van en teen elke model, sowel as hulle sterk en swak punte, word behandel om duidelik aan te toon dat nie een van die drie modelle genoegsame praktiese strategiese metodes oplewer nie. Nadenke oor die waarheidsgehalte en moontlike verlossingskrag van nie-Christelike godsdienste, en oor Christene se wyse van interaksie met mense van ander gelowe, verskaf opsigself nie die nodige vrugbare praktiese riglyne nie. Met betrekking tot die idee van ’n etiek van omhelsing, het verskeie teoloë, waaronder Hans Küng, Miroslav Volf, Harold Nethland, Sam Storms, en Robert H. Stein, om net ’n paar te noem, sterk konstruktiewe argumente ontwikkel wat die idee van ’n etiek van omhelsing ondersteun en bevorder in verband met Christene se verhouding met mense van ander gelowe. Hierdie studie argumenteer ten slotte dat die drie teologiese modelle wat ondersoek is ’n etiek moet heroorweeg van ’n verhouding van omhelsing teenoor mense van ander gelowe, indien hulle tot vrede tussen mense van verskillende gelowe wil bydra. Die navorser ondersoek ook tot watter mate die drie modelle met ’n etiek van omhelsing versoen kan word. Aangesien Partikularisme skynbaar meer vrae in hierdie verband oproep, word dit veral deurdink. Die navorser kom dan tot die gevolgtrekking dat die etiek van omhelsing, in die konteks van Partikularisme, dalk die verlore skakel is wat, ook vir die Partikulariste, geweld onder die verskillende gelowe kan teenwerk. Dit kan moontlik nie slegs vreedsame verhoudings tussen die verskillende gelowe teweegbring nie, maar ook daartoe bydra dat Partikularisme in die teologiese debat tot geloofsvrede kan bydrae. Versoening, vergifnis, gasvryheid en toleransie is temas wat in verband met ’n etiek van omhelsing ter sprake kom, en vorm belangrike aspekte van hoofstuk 5, aangesien dit nie net in abstrakte sin die waarheidsgehalte en verlossingskrag van Christus sterk beklemtoon nie, maar ook die wyse waarop dit in sy lewe, soos die Bybelse getuies dit narratief skets, in ’n praktyk van omhelsing van die medemens gestalte gevind het.

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo analisar aspectos da produção e divulgação nos últimos anos da década de 50, do século XX, do discurso anticomunista de matriz católica integrista na sociedade caruaruense. Veiculado através do jornal A Defesa, esse discurso, construído pelos próceres e intelectuais da Igreja local, do clero e do laicato, buscou a manutenção da hegemonia da Igreja e a da classe à qual seus líderes sentiam-se ligados. Para essa análise, partiu-se do entendimento, baseado em Foucault, de que as relações do cotidiano são constituídas com o uso de códigos e linguagens, nos quais o jogo da dominação e dos saberes impera, com a finalidade de manter, através do discurso, as formas de dominação na sociedade. Além de Foucault, para a elaboração do presente trabalho, também foram utilizados os conceitos de Certeau a fim de compreender o cotidiano. Práticas e relações cotidianas que colaboram para a manutenção, como também a produção dos sujeitos sociais por meio de discursos e relações nos interstícios da sociedade como uma arte de fazer e ser dos sujeitos cotidianos. Aplicando esse instrumental teórico buscou-se analisar o discurso desenvolvido pela Igreja Católica, que se utilizou da linguagem da fé e da doutrina social formulada pelo papa Leão XIII, no final do século XIX, com a encíclica Rerum Novarum, a fim de coibir o avanço do comunismo no mundo e consequentemente no Brasil, como também na cidade de Caruaru, Pernambuco local. Pesquisou-se a metodologia utilizada pela Igreja na difusão imagético-discursiva acerca do comunismo, que não se resumiu apenas em pregações durante as missas, mas buscou alcançar a grande maioria dos caruaruenses, lançando uma guerra santa contra o comunismo, por meio do jornal A Defesa. / The goal of this essay is to analize aspects of production and dissemination from the anticommunist speech of Catholic matrix in Caruaru society throuth the diocesan newspaper A Defesa, in the last years of the 50s of the twentieth century. This speech built by grandees and intellectual men from the local church both clergy and laity, it tried to maintain the churchs hegemony and mass which leaders are connected. The analyze was based on Foucault, everyday relations are established with the use of codes and languages in which there are domination and knowledge, in order to keep forms of domination in society by the talking. In addition to Foucault, it was also used the concepts of Certeau on the daily practices and relationships that contribute to the social networks, and the production of social subjects through speeches and relations of the society interstices, as an "art of doing and being. It is applying this theoretical tool, it analyzed the speech developed by the local Catholic Church which used the language of faith and the social doctrine formulated by Pope Leo XIII and developed by his successors, in order to stop the spread of communism in the city of Caruaru, Pernambuco. It was researched the methodology used by the Church in imagistic discursive dissemination about communism that was not reduced only in preaching at MISSA, but it wanted a big number of Caruaru people, it started a "holy war" against communism, through the newspaper A Defesa.
