Beschreibung
This study traces the theology of mission partnerships between Protestant churches in the Netherlands and Indonesia, from the colonial through the postcolonial era, in the history of the Netherlands Missionary Council, the International Missionary Council and the World Council of Churches.
Partnership is a controversial concept in Protestant mission. This historical and missiological study traces the relations between Dutch and Indonesian churches from the colonial through the postcolonial era in the history of the Netherlands Missionary Council, the International Missionary Council and the World Council of Churches. Based on his research in missionary and ecumenical archives, the author sheds light on equality, mutuality and reciprocity in Dutch-Indonesian mission partnerships. He also discusses the changing role of missionaries in the twentieth century.
