Theology and Psychology: Potentialities and Limits of Dialogue
Anđelko Domazet
Sažetak
How to conceive a fruitful dialogue between Christian theology and psychology? The author is trying to answer the question from theological point of view. The history of relationship between theology and psychology is evident in a wider context of centuries old dispute on the relations between faith and science and on the method of scientific and theological cognition.
The work consists of three parts. In the first part the author presents two in principle different possibilities of determining the relationship between theology and psychology, and these are: “the model of exclusiveness”, and “the model of identification”.
In the second part of the work the relation between theology and psychology is viewed from the perspective of integral anthropology in which man is observed as a physical-psychicalsocial- spiritual being. The theological anthropology, as different from philosophical, medical or biological anthropology, deals with definite. In the final part, the author counts some challenges of interdisciplinary dialogue between theology and psychology for pastoral work, where each of the two disciplines brings its own praxis into mutual exchange – spiritual charge, i. e. psychotherapy.
