| Résumé anglais | Strikingly marked on the Catholic side by the Vatican II concile, the movement of the gathering of separated Christians, begun in the first third of the 20ths, had a golden age in the 1950s. This came partially from the cold war context and the exceptional personalities of the various churches' leaders. But while this coming together can be explained by the internal history of each confession, the following decade was marked by a movement of protest that gave birth to a strained but always living ecumenism. The open crisis the changes from the fail of the Berlin wall in 1989 brought about was quite different. The increase of local conflicts that resulted from it threatened the peaceful coexistence among the Churches. What seemed to happen was as if in the three branches of Christianity the new context involved a return to old particularist temptations. Nevertheless, ecumenism became the normal regime of relations among the world's Chritians. | |
