English summary: In today’s multi-ethnic and multi-cultural Asian contexts, religious plurality is one of the hallmarks of many societies. This book provides new insights into the current realities of religious life in Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia and Myanmar, highlights the influence of religious commitment on the public space, and examines how Christian theology engages with contemporary realities in Asia. Christian theologians of different denominations offer fascinating theological reflections on justification, salvation, the Holy Spirit and the Trinity, and discuss interactions within and between Asian societies as well as with the world at large. German description: In den heutigen multiethnischen und multikulturellen asiatischen Kontexten ist religiose Vielfalt fur viele Gesellschaften kennzeichnend. Dieses Buch bietet neue Einblicke in die gegenwartige Situation des religiosen Lebens in Hongkong, Indien, Indonesien, Japan, Malaysia und Myanmar, beleuchtet den Einfluss religiosen Engagements im offentlichen Raum und stellt dar, wie christliche Theologie sich mit den gegenwartigen Realitaten in Asien auseinandersetzt. Christliche Theologen aus verschiedenen Denominationen reflektieren in diesem Band auf faszinierende Weise uber Rechtfertigung, Erlosung, den Heiligen Geist und die Trinitat und diskutieren die wechselseitigen komplexen Entwicklungen sowohl in und als auch zwischen den asiatischen Gesellschaften und weltweit.
