Tätigkeit und Erfüllung

Modern societies, which are based on labor contracts and employment, are undergoing a period of change. As a result of this, concepts of work and its significance are being redefined. This holds true for Protestantism as well, which since the days of Max Weber has been notorious for its alleged affinity to work ethics. Torsten Meireis studies the processes of change in a work-oriented society and the historical and contemporary theological, philosophical and social debates on vocation and work, and in doing so tries to find a Christian concept of meaningful action.
