...CRUCIFIED GOD, by Jürgen Moltmann (Harper & Row; 346 pages; $10). Even when he was lecturing in the U.S. after publication of his Theology of Hope in 1967, this German Protestant theologian offered no vision of an easily won future: behind the hope of Christ's Resurrection, he insisted, lay the dark courage of the Crucifixion. Now Moltmann takes a long, measured look at the God who became man and an outlaw, "a scandal to the devout and a disturber of the peace in the eyes of the mighty." Learnedly and often ardently written, The Crucified...
...import prices rising twice as fast as its export prices, Denmark suffered a more than $ 1 billion balance of payments deficit in 1974. Unemployment, at a 22-year high, has cut deeply into some professions. "If you take the No. 6 bus on Thursdays," observes Architect JØrgen Andersen, 39, "it is full of architects on their way to the unemployment office." (Andersen himself will be laid off by March 1.) They are casualties of the slump in the construction industry. Other industries particularly hard hit: textiles, meat-packing and car assembly...
...black Methodist Bishop Abel Muzorewa, a steady voice for racial equality "whom Rhodesia's black people have learned to trust"; and David Du Plessis, globetrotting apostle of the fast-spreading, transdenominational Pentecostal movement. The editors reserved some of their highest praise for German Theologian Jürgen Moltmann, a Reformed thinker whom they call "the most dominant theological presence of our time." They find that Moltmann's rigorous but essentially optimistic thought (The Theology of Hope; Religion, Revolution and the Future) offers "a hope for the present and future life to victims of today's chaotic world...
When word got out that the Danish government was helping to fund Jens Jørgen Thorsen's blasphemous new film The Love Affairs of Jesus Christ, the Young Christians mobilized a protest march of 5,000 people through the streets of Copenhagen. In Amsterdam, a summertime citadel for hippies, many of Holland's 10,000 Jesus People joined a throng of young evangelists from overseas in distributing roses and Gospels as they marched to a park service. Some 8,000 youths, most of them from eastern Pennsylvania, descended on a potato field near Morgantown for an exuberant...
Most successful European executives stay with one company (or at most two) throughout their careers. Not Jürgen Krackow, he is a German who looks like British Actor Trevor Howard, acts like an American job-hopper and talks like the multinational executive that he hopes to become. Now 49, Krackow has rotated among high positions in banking, construction and machine-tool production. Now he has taken over as chairman of the executive board of the fabled and recently troubled Krupp steelmaking and heavy machinery concern. Krackow replaces Güinter Vogelsang, who rescued the Ruhr giant from the brink...
