1. Theological Anthropology in the Digital Age

Personhood, soul, and human dignity face new challenges under the impact of emerging technologies, artificial intelligence, and digital identity. How can human uniqueness and moral agency be preserved in an environment shaped by algorithms and fragmented between physical and digital selves? This section invites theological reflections on human integrity and responsibility in a technocentric culture.

2. Body, Gender, and Biopolitics

Gene editing (CRISPR), bodily modification, gender identity debates, and biopolitical practices reshape human embodiment. How can Christian anthropology address human integrity, gender identity, and the meaning of the body in an age where medical and technological capacities transcend traditional limits? This section welcomes theological, bioethical, and cultural analyses.

3. Culture and Civilization

Globalization, postmodernism, metamodernism, migration, information overload, and virtual communities reshape identity and moral reasoning. How can individuals maintain cultural rootedness, selfhood, and moral direction in a world where traditional structures dissolve? This section seeks contributions addressing anthropological change within cultural and civilizational frameworks.

4. Eco-Theology and Human Responsibility in the Anthropocene

The ecological crisis, climate change, and the fragility of the biosphere raise urgent questions about humanity as the guardian of creation (custos creationis). How can Christian tradition offer a balanced perspective that honors both ecological responsibility and humanity’s unique status? This section focuses on theological, ecological, and ethical reflections within the Anthropocene.

5. Historical Perspectives in Christian Anthropology

Classical authors — Augustine, Aquinas, Luther, and others — offer profound insights into human nature, freedom, dignity, and sin. How can these sources illuminate contemporary challenges such as AI ethics, digital identity, or transhumanism? This section encourages a creative dialogue between tradition and contemporary issues.

6. Digital Ethics, Artificial Intelligence, and Moral Responsibility

Artificial intelligence increasingly shapes medicine, security, social networks, military systems, and governance. This raises crucial questions regarding human agency and responsibility when decisions are made or influenced by algorithms. How can human moral accountability be preserved under algorithmic control? This section explores the contribution of Christian anthropology to digital ethics.

7. Humanity and War in a Technocentric Age

Drones, autonomous weapons, cyberspace, and cognitive warfare profoundly transform the experience and identity of the soldier. Remote warfare creates distance between action and consequence, challenging moral agency. This section invites reflections on dignity, duty, will, and responsibility in a military landscape increasingly shaped by technology.

8. Social Atomization and the Crisis of Human Relationships

Digital culture fosters a fragmented individual who is simultaneously hyper-connected and socially isolated. Empathy and genuine closeness decline as virtual relationships become superficial. This section examines the crisis of community, relationality, and human presence in technologically mediated societies, as well as theological approaches to restoring authentic human relations.
