Perspectief 2016-34

2016-34 Editorial 5 Com ment the nature of the recognition we pursue? Can we receive one another truly? Are the different perspectives incompatible, or do they just express divers aspects of a complex totality? How can we engage in ecumenical contacts in the future? As the papers move from theoretical analysis to practical implication, some possible answers are given. As member of the Perspectief editorial board and as participant of the consultation, I appreciate these papers highly. I am grateful to the authors for contributing to the consultation and to this journal. I have composed this issue of Perspectief , hoping that the papers will contribute to ecumenical thought in the Netherlands and beyond. Fokke Wouda
