A more phenomonological pneumatology looks at the works of the Spirit in order to speak about who the Spirit is. A study along these lines would develop, in one direction, into an examination of ecclesiology and history, and, in the other direction, into Christology and the Trinity.
Pneumatology is therefore the universal horizon determining the interpretation of Christ and the Trinity.

I felt that Karkkainen's book on pneumatology is something that is definitely needed in a time when the study of the spirit is something that often falls on the wayside.

 Olson, A.M.: Hegel and the Spirit: Philosophy as Pneumatology.
Hegel's philosophy of spirit, according to Olson, is a speculative pneumatology that completes what Adolf von Harnack once called the "orphan doctrine" in Christian theology--the doctrine of the Holy Spirit.
Olson argues that Hegel's development of philosophy as pneumatology originates out of a deep appreciation of Luther's dialectical understanding of Spirit and that Hegel's doctrine of Spirit is thus deeply interfused with the values of Wrttemberg Pietism.
Exploring Hegel's philosophy of spirit in historical, cultural, and personal religious context, the book identifies Hegel's relationship with Hlderlin and his response to Hlderlin's madness as key elements in the philosopher's religious and philosophical development, especially with respect to the meaning of transcendence and dialectic.

 The Holistic Pneumatology
  I hope this essay, which examines Jürgen Moltmann's pneumatology, shall be a contribution to this effort through which Pentecostalism may see other traditions as full of the work of the Spirit and able to contribute concurrently to the future of Christian belief in God and self-understanding.
Nevertheless, panentheism in essence does not resolutely reject pantheism or emanationism, for it is the effort to use the insights of these ‘-isms’ along with the insights of deism to construct a holistic pneumatology.
The sharpest criticism of Moltmann’s pneumatology from Pentecostal scholars has been his neglect of the Lukan material regarding the Spirit.

 Towards an emergent pneumatology | open source theology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
One of the difficulties, of course, is that the Church in general has long had a deficient pneumatology.
Formalizing the pneumatology expressed would certainly be a worthwhile venture, yet the absence of this formal discussion doesn’t necessarily mean there is a lack of pneumatology within these communities.
As a result I would state my position on pneumatology as the fact that consistently following the message of Jesus and undergoing the transformation that he described gives us an "air" of compassion (a holy spirit) and that air or state of compassion produces in us the qualities of Christ.

 Power and the Spirit of God -- Toward an Experience-Based Pneumatology -- Bernard Cooke
Cooke suggests, however, that the deepest questions about conflicting powers are theological and concern what Christians have traditionally referred to as "the Holy Spirit" and "salvation." He believes that the twentieth-century reappraisal of the theological view of power may represent the most radical paradigm shift to touch Christianity in eighteen hundred years.
In present-day scholarly discussions of pneumatology (the theology of the Holy Spirit), there is widespread agreement that the traditional description of the Spirit of God as the third person of the trinity is both inadequate and misleading.
Cooke follows these paths in an attempt to frame an experience-based pneumatology, offering a phenomenological description of selected spheres of power-economic, political, social, personal-as arenas to perceive the agency of the Spirit.
