Abstract
In this article Martin Luther King, Jr.’s concept of active non-violent resistance and his stand against the Vietnam War are reconstructed in their historical and societal context, following his own theological concept of contextualization. The findings suggest that King combines fundamental and contextual arguments to sustain his position. It is argued that in order to apply his positions to the current questions of peace and war, King’s arguments have to be recontextualized. Special emphasis is laid on King’s theological concept of human dignity and human rights as well as his vision of a Great World House as unique contributions to the peace discourse of his time and beyond.
