Overview

From 1945 to 1975 the relationships between the Evangelical Lutheran Churches and Roman Catholic Dioceses in Lower Saxony/Germany changed fundamentally. Step-by-step, but by no means continuous improvements shaped the process, which proceeded regionally at different speeds and intensities. Eventually, this resulted in a capacity for dialogue and action. For each regional church and diocese, the resault of the research presents an 'ecumenical portrait' of the significant structures, persons and typical attitudes to issues of ecumenism and interdenominational cooperation. For the regional perspective, national and international contexts of Christianity are considered as well as the socio-political background of the Federal Republic of Germany.
