Description
Summary:Beginning with two international symposia held in March 2005 on “Dialogue among Religions around the World” (Bulletin 29 (2005): 9–19) and “In Search of Dialogue among Religions in the Middle East” (『南山宗教文 化研究所 研究所報』15 (2005): 4–9), the Nanzan Institute has taken steps to enter actively into discussions with scholars of religions that have so far been marginal to the dialogue within Japan. In 2007 this initiative was reciprocated by the University of Sousse in Tunisia with the generous support of then Ambassador of Tunisia in Japan, Dr. Salah Hannachi. What follows is a brief report of the discussions on religious pluralism held last spring in Tunisia, to which the Nanzan Institute led a delegation from Japan.
