KRITZINGER, JNJ (Klippies). The search for Ikhaya. Can we build a Home together?. Missionalia (Online) [online]. 2022, vol.50, n.spe, pp.91-118. ISSN 2312-878X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.7832/50-1-460.

The search for a new social contract in South Africa is explored in this paper by examining the terms ikhaya and oikos, and the notion of covenanting together to build a home across the fault lines that divide society. It uses a seven-point praxis matrix to reflect on the way in which a group of theologians could covenant together to overcome the fault line of racism to build a 'deracial' home. The paper explores the role that each of the seven dimensions of praxis (agency, spirituality, interpreting the tradition, discernment for action, contextual understanding, and ecclesial scrutiny) should play in such a journey.
