Discussion Panels
Discussion Panel 1: Is “conservative ecumenism” a form of ecumenism at all? Is it really new? Does it pose a threat to “classical ecumenism” (similar to the threat of anti- ecumenism) or can it be accommodated within its framework? With Thomas Bremer, Regina Elsner, Alexander Kyrlezhev
Discussion Panel 2: What are the contents of conservative ecumenism? Is “gender” the (only) “symbolic glue” for conservative ecumenism? With Dmitry Uzlaner, Aristotle Papanikolaou, Jennifer Wasmuth
Discussion Panel 3: Who are the actors in ecumenism? Do the categories “liberals, traditionalists, fundamentalists” help us to understand (and maybe evaluate) the phenomenon of a multifaceted ecumenism? With Kristina Stoeckl, Ingeborg Gabriel, Andrey Shishkov
