Dietrich Bonhoeffer is one of the most influential theologians of the twentieth century. His courageous life during the Nazi regime, together with his theological reflections on responsible Christian existence, continues to inspire diverse contexts around the world to this day. This volume brings together engagements with Bonhoeffer from South Korea and Rwanda – two settings whose reception of Bonhoeffer has so far received too little attention in international discourse. It highlights how younger theologians seek to make Bonhoeffer’s life and theology fruitful for the challenges they face, drawing in particular on his Christology and his “view from below”, which foregrounds the experience of the marginalized and victims of history.
