A country that re-defined the concept of "space"; another that turned human interaction into an artform; outwardly uninspiring places revealing their inner charm. Even if we live in a "Global Village", every street in this village still has its own flavour, and every house is unique and worth exploring. Part rumination, part travelogue, Traversing the Global Village is a reflection on the extraordinary diversity of people, places, and cultures that author Edward Porper has encountered over a lifetime of travel. If you enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures, Traversing the Global Village is for you.

Our perspective of wealth and what we need to live is affected by the people around us. What if the world population were shrunk to a village of 100 people, and you lived in that village? How would your neighbors live? What would they believe? How would that change your perspective? This book gives a glimpse into the world outside our own communities and helps us see the world through the eyes of Jesus.

Die Globalisierung ist überall. Und mit dem Bewusstsein dieser Tatsache wächst auch die Furcht vieler Menschen. Werden wir als wurzellose Nomaden, als Fremde in einer Welt des ständigen Wechsels enden? Doch gibt es auch andere, positive Aspekte des Lebens im 'globalen Dorf', nicht zuletzt die Aussicht auf Befreiung aus traditionellen Einschränkungen und auf bessere Möglichkeiten zur Selbstverwirklichung.

In a world plagued by religious conflict, how can the various religious and secular traditions coexist peacefully on the planet? And, what role does sociology play in helping us understand the state of religious life in a globalizing world? In the Fourth Edition ofGods in the Global Village, author Lester Kurtz continues to address these questions. This text is an engaging, thought-provoking examination of the relationships among the major faith traditions that inform the thinking and ethical standards of most people in the emerging global social order. Thoroughly updated to reflect recent events, the book discusses the role of religion in our daily lives and global politics, and the ways in which religion is both an agent of, and barrier to, social change.
