Zusammenfassung: | This article identifies some of the developing context of interfaith relations within the ecumenical movement in the United Kingdom, where there has been a seismic shift in the national political debate that is now dominated by the decision, following a referendum, to leave the European Union. It argues that interfaith relations has lost much of its radical focus upon justice and become focused upon initiatives of social cohesion, mutual understanding, and celebration of difference, rather than addressing some of the deeper issues of justice and racism and the consequences of Britain's colonial history, much of which has re-emerged as a result of Brexit. This is of critical importance given the rise in hate crime, particularly anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. |
