Abstract

378 started this cannot be done without the competent advice of experts in the changing fields of development. - Partnership needs to be intensified in substance. Trips to visit each other should be focused with regard to the participants taking part and with regard to a chosen theme. - There is a need of missionary-ecumenical renewal of the work, espe- cially in relation to the German socio-political context and the German church. - Learning processes in dealing with the Other/the Stranger include bringing out conflicts. A rash identification with the Stranger is detri- mental and prevents learning processes. In the conclusion of his dissertation Bauerochse strongly and per- haps too fully refers to his mentor Theo Sundermeier and his recent arguments concerning dealing with the Stranger. Bauerochse success- fully utilizes Sundermeier's hermeneutical concept for his own research. Accordingly he describes the aim of interchurch partnerships as the 'growing of convivial congregations' (p. 411). For those who are involved in the kind of North-South partnerships Bauerochse is talking about this is an essential book. Moreover, it is of broader interest for all those engaged in critical and self-critical relation- ships of solidarity between people in the North and South.
