Summary/Abstract: This work briefly describes the life and works of Hans Küng, specifically referring to the development of Küng’s work “Global Ethic Project”. This particular project is based on Hans Küng’s well-known maxim: “No peace among the nations without peace among the religions; no peace among the religions without dialogue between the religions; no dialogue between the religions without investigation of the foundations of the religions.” Küng wished his Global Ethical Project to extol the dignity and the survival of every man and to be a link among people inviting them to religious dialogue and thence to world peace. The significance of the Global Ethic Project is undoubtedly its invitation to global peace through peace among religions, with an emphasis on what is common to all religions – namely, love toward man.
