Abstract
Abstract. History may be pregnant with a new paradigm centering around the organic features of systems in four areas: the global‐ecological, the national‐social, the organizational‐institutional, and the individual‐psychological. Key terms are holistic, synergy, harmony, interdependence, and synthesis. A transition is occurring in each of these realms that has great potential for human fulfillment, if the shift can be successfully managed. Movements in theology can be similarly illuminated by this analysis at three points: the global conversation between liberation and establishment theologies, the renewed discussion among Christian theologians regarding other world religions, and the current influence of process theology.
