According to Bethel College professor Amos Yong, the contemporary impasse in Christian theology of religions stems from the exclusivist-inclusivist-pluralist models that have become entrenched during the last generation. One of the problems that these categories generate, he suggests, is that they have emerged out of strictly soteriological rather than more general theological inquiries.

Tensions between China and Taiwan are not likely to abate in the foreseeable future. The question of Taiwan’s sovereignty is the major point of friction, and the continuing impasse between China and Taiwan is worrisome.

This book explores the tensions between markets, democracy, neoliberalism, state restructuring and citizenship. In this regard, the balance of citizen rights has been shifted away from providing citizens with social rights to privileging the property rights of private, mostly transnational, firms. Bolivian Stalemate throws light on the reasons and processes behind the rising opposition in country after country in Latin America to the currently fashionable, internationally prescribed economic development strategy of neoliberalism.

Encodings certainly exist, butencoding
