About the Ecumenical Directory of 1993. An Orthodox Perspective

Summary/Abstract: Since the Decree on Ecumenism (unitatis redintegratio) — promulgated on 21 November 1964 by the Second Vatican Council — provided only some general principles and instructions for the upcoming ecumenical activity of the Roman Catholic Church on 25 March 1993, Pontificium Consilium ad Christianorum Unitatem Fovendam published the Directory for the Application of Principles and Norms on Ecumenism. In the present study we analyse the text of the Ecumenical Directory of 1993 from the Orthodox perspective, which is animated by the honest desire to contribute to a better understanding of the ecumenical theology of the Roman Catholic Church among the Eastern theologians and canon law scholars, and, ipso facto, to bring a real contribution ad fovendam christianorum unitatem.
