Einen - bislang - ungehobenen Schatz an Erfahrungen mit diesem Themenkomplex bergen die freikirchlichen Mennoniten. Dass deren Ethik des Gewaltverzichts sich aus ihrem spezifischen Kirchenverstandnis speist, ist Kern dieser Untersuchung. Enns zeigt auf, wie eng die mennonitische Tradition exegetische Einsichten, theologische Grundfragen und ethische Forderungen miteinander verknupft und welch wertvoller Beitrag hieraus fur den okumenischen Dialog zu gewinnen ist. Der Verfasser entfaltet das Selbstverstandnis der Friedenskirchen, skizziert Potenziale und Perspektiven und entwickelt ein eigenes, trinitarisch gefulltes Konzept von Gemeinschaft /communio.
