Religionspadagogik Michael Domsgen

In his publication on religious pedagogy Michael Domsgen aims at a thorough analysis of various processes in religious education. Furthermore, he aims at their practice-oriented description and at a focus on their Christian profile. The professor at Martin-Luther-University of Halle-Wittenberg presents his subject by combining historical depth, empirical insights, comparisons with other countries and a systematic approach. On that basis, he gives an overview of present challenges in the field and outlines a realignment of religious pedagogy as a theory of Protestant empowerment. From there, new perspectives on religious education are given, including the settings family, school (e. g. religious education) and parish (e. g. confirmation work) with a special focus on relating them to each other.
