dc.description.abstract Bosch’s missiological thinking shows the extent to which he draws from the tradition of World mission conferences. The article traces how he connects with the conferences from Edinburgh 1910 to Achimota 1958. In a cursory way it is shown that Bosch’s Missiology in general and the manner in which he connects with the mission conferences specifically reflect a tendency to universalism. This is shown inter alia by picking up on issues from the conferences which are of a contextual nature and which find no reflection in Bosch’s thinking. One such issue is race, which featured in one form or another at all six conferences discussed in the article. en
