description Ethical Criteria of Reconciliation and Remembrance. Reconciliation is a fundamental concept of Christian theology, church practice and ecumenical social ethics. It is difficult to give a universally valid definition of reconciliation. The concept reflects the changes of the image of God and man, the shifts in the Christian understanding of salvation in cultural, legal and social context. Despite these significant differences, the juridical and social aspect of the doctrine is a constant in the history of theology and interpretation. According to this classic interpretation, reconciliation refers to the foundational event between God and man. The acting force of the event of reconciliation is God - but the human being has its part in actively participating in the act of reconciliation, accepting the grace of God to collaborate with the creator in social, legal, economic and ecologic reconciliation between God and man-kind. Unfortunately, the concept of reconciliation has been stripped of this rich spiritual-theological meaning and was reduced to its social, political and juridical dimensions. In order to counteract the one-sidedness of this understanding of reconciliation, this study aims to explore the theological-biblical complexity of reconciliation, and then to show the relevance of this rich theological concept for the culture of remembrance, philosophical debates, and for the moral-legal dimension of the reconciliation processes of our societies.
