What is it about?

Recently, interfaith dialogue - in this paper understood as interfaith activities - is located at different, also "non-religious" sites, as art galleries or town halls. Against this background, I ask for the interrelationship between action in interfaith events and the specific event venue. Therefore, I use concepts from interaction and spatial theory.

Why is it important?

In post-modern societies classical functional differentiated areas and spatial boundaries in general are challenged. My contribution tries to present an idea how to analyse the locality of interfaith activities.

Perspectives

The content of this contribution is part of my phd-project on processes of interfaith action due to their spatial contexts and transformations of event venues by interfaith activities.
