RELIGION AND HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

The radicals and the revolutionaries, the humanists and the religious followers of our time are becoming more and more aware of the blatant fact that the world we live in has yet to become human. The developing nations, the so-called Third World, are putting on a new awareness with regard to the
world-situation and consequently. are beginning to see the problem of development in a new perspective. Since religion is still a great working force in these nations, the role of religion in engendering and fostering this new awareness is of paramount importance.
