  abstract  = {In 1993, the Parliament of the World's Religions endorsed the "Declaration toward a Global Ethic" composed by Hans K{\"u}ng. In it, representatives from all the world's religions agreed on principles for a global ethic and committed themselves to directives of nonviolence, respect for life, solidarity, a just economic order, tolerance, and equal rights and partnership between men and women. But the declaration was just the first step. In this impressive volume, Hans Kueng, probably the most famous living Roman Catholic theologian, and Rabbi Walter Homolka, head of Germany's Abraham Geiger rabbinical seminary and distinguished professor, draw on the Jewish tradition to show the riches that Judaism can offer people of all faiths and nonbelievers in achieving these directives. Presenting key sacred texts and theological writings, the authors make the case for binding values and basic moral attitudes that can be found in Judaism's universal message of a better world. Exploring Judaism's focus on ethical conduct over declarations of faith, the authors show that making ethical decisions is indispensable in an ever-changing world.},

  abstract  = {In der Menschheitsgeschichte war und ist es das Judentum, das Gerechtigkeit, also den rechten Umgang von Menschen untereinander, zur Kernfrage der Religion gemacht hat. Hans Kueng und Walter Homolka fuehren ein in die zentrale Idee vom ethischen Zusammenleben der Menschen. Dabei bieten sie auch Einblick in Kerntexte zur Ethik aus drei Jahrtausenden juedischer Weisheit, angefangen von der Hebraeischen Bibel bis zu den juedischen Religionsphilosophen der Moderne. Die repraesentative Textsammlung orientiert sich an den Leitlinien der "Erklaerung zum Weltethos", die unter Federfuehrung von Hans Kueng entstand und 1993 von Vertretern aller Weltreligionen verkuendet wurde: Gewaltlosigkeit, Solidaritaet, Toleranz und Partnerschaft zwischen Frauen und Maennern.},
