| Summary: | This essay is a direct response to the theme of the 2021 Annual Conference of the North American Academy of Ecumenists, in that it seeks to answer the question, "What is dangerous about ecumenism?" Understanding the nature of this danger, and how professional ecumenists came to face and live with this danger in the past century, can prove instructive for addressing the ecumenical hazards of our present moment, so that Christians can learn to disagree "humanely and productively about public challenges with high stakes and real dangers." Specifically, it proposes intersubjective recognition as a tool that can help us better understand both the past of our ecumenical work and the present and future challenges of the ecumenical movement to come. |
