Religion und Behinderung

Text in German. Why do we have to question the terms religion and "disability" again today? Medical technological progress and the restructuring of the welfare state provoke unusual perspectives. It is only in the last few years that new, socially generated ambivalences have characterized this field of work: Is it normal for people to be different? Do religion and Christian belief raise critical objections in the one-sidedly oriented performance society? In view of the theodicy problems, is integration even possible? With his work, Roland Kollmann makes an important contribution to the current debate.
