Abstract
The concept of “new evangelization” is relatively new. The substance of the
concept is still in the process of “fine-tuning” within Catholic theology. In this article
we try to explain what this concept means and what it doesn’t mean in the Catholic
understanding. This explanation serves as the starting point for studying the concept
and content of “new evangelization” in orthodox and Islamic belief. In the conclusion
we point out some positive and potentially negative applications of “new evangelization”
to society in Bosnia and Herzegovina from the point of view of ecumenism and
dialogue.
Keywords
