摘要

在南非,关于种族的对话继续受到民主转型中出现的宗教救赎和解叙事的影响。然而,历史上批判黑人和解放神学的声音质疑宗教/伦理理想的和解是否充分解决了系统性种族主义的不公正。近年来,随着#学费必须下降#等社会运动的兴起,这些问题获得了新的共鸣。这篇文章的问题是,神学上的和解概念在促进种族正义方面是否有效,这一看似棘手的希望是否有根据。我们首先回顾和询问和解是如何在当代神学话语中使用的,认为鉴于不满情绪的上升,和解仍然是南非基督教神学话语中的一个突出主题和话题,这是令人震惊的。然后,我们提出了几个替代方案,可能有助于解决白人种族主义问题,并从南非神学一直投入到和解语言的持续能量中受益。

Haunted by Reconciliation?
Abstract Conversations about race in South Africa continue to be shaped by a religious-redemptive narrative of reconciliation that emerged in the democratic transition. However, there is a history of critical Black and liberation theological voices questioning whether the religious/ethical ideal of reconciliation adequately addresses the injustices of systemic racism. These questions gained new resonance in recent years with social movements like #feesmustfall. This article asks whether the seemingly intractable hope that a theological concept of reconciliation will be efficacious in facilitating racial justice is warranted. We begin by reviewing and interrogating how reconciliation is being used in contemporary theological discourses, arguing that given rising discontent, it is striking that reconciliation continues to be a prominent theme and topic within South African Christian theological discourses. We then propose several alternatives that may help address the problem of white racism and benefit from the sustained energy that South African theology has been putting into the language of reconciliation.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Religion in Africa was founded in 1967 by Andrew Walls. In 1985 the editorship was taken over by Adrian Hastings, who retired in 1999. His successor, David Maxwell, acted as Executive Editor until the end of 2005. The Journal of Religion in Africa is interested in all religious traditions and all their forms, in every part of Africa, and it is open to every methodology. Its contributors include scholars working in history, anthropology, sociology, political science, missiology, literature and related disciplines. It occasionally publishes religious texts in their original African language.
