Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los teólogos europeos, que apelan a un diálogo fecundo entre el Evangelio y el ideal de emancipacion (y de "progresismo") nacido en la época de la Ilustración, ¿no deberían mostrarse más cercanos a los teólogos de la liberación? Porque, de hecho, no se ha entablado -o se ha entablado mal- el diálogo entre los teólogos europeos de la "modernidad" y los teólogos latinoamericanos de la liberación. Aparte del apoyo a personas concretas (por razones casi siempre de amistad), aún está por plantearse un auténtico debate. ¿Acaso el "progresismo" de las teologías europeas no es contemporáneo de la estrategia expansiva de las naciones ricas y de la explotación por éstas de los países en vías de desarrollo? ¿Y no es la teología de la liberación, en cambio, un rechazo de ese engranaje de "dependencia" y "explotación"? La "opción preferencial por los pobres" pone a los teólogos de la liberación en íntima relación con las clases expoliadas. Pero, ¿son las teologías europeas igualmente conscientes de sus implicaciones sociales ? Por otra parte, las teologías, sean del país que sean, no pueden desarrollarse de forma "católica" y ecuménica sin apelar a todos los recursos de la razón, incluidos los de la razón ilustrada. El diálogo, pues, no puede diferirse indefinidamente. Es preciso iniciarlos cuanto antes. CHRISTIAN DUQUOC, nacido en 1926 en Nantes, es dominico y profesor de Teología Dogmática en la Facultad de Teología católica de Lyon, y enseña también en la Facultad de Teología protestante de Ginebra. En España es especialmente conocido por su espléndida Cristología, publicada por la Editorial Sígueme.

Download or read book Limits of Liberation written by Elina Vuola and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2002-09-19 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How far are the real lives of millions of poor women really catered for in liberation and feminist theologies? Vuola argues here that traditional liberation theology's notion of praxis (as in L .Boff and E. Dussel) is limited by its essentialist notion of 'poor' and its neglect of the issue of poor women's reproductive rights. Classical feminist theologies, on the other hand, are fraught with their own essentialist notions ('women's experience'). Both discourses are inadequate to deal with poor women's suffering: widespread maternal mortality, high rates of botched, illegal abortions, and an overall lack of reproductive rights. As a response to this lack, Vuola nurtures a form of Latin American feminist liberation theology that addresses directly the suffering and death of these millions of women.

Download or read book The Kingdom of God written by John Fuellenbach and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-04-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fruit of many decades of study and teaching, 'The Kingdom of God' provides an impressive, systematic treatment of the doctrine of the Kingdom of God. It is a comprehensive review of this crucial symbol, as well as a careful analysis of its meaning, and a creative interpretation of the Kingdom motif for the church and Christians in our age. 'The Kingdom of God begins by analyzing the background of this idea in Hebrew scripture and tradition, and in the preaching of Jesus. Fuellenbach explores how this elusive phrase presents a specific, comprehensive view of reality, and a goal for transforming the world. In Fuellenbach's reading, the Kingdom forms the core of Christian faith and the reference point of all theology, spirituality, and apostolic activity. Fuellenbach pays special attention to the relationships among Kingdom, Church, and World, arguing that with the Kingdom, Jesus proclaimed a vision that embraces God, humankind, and the whole of creation in the single most comprehensive vision of reality imaginable. 'The Kingdom of God' is balanced and nuanced in its scholarship, but also vigorous and courageous in taking positions sure to provoke debate. For example, Fuellenbach argues that the word Kingdom is to be preferred over the word Reign, despite critiques that find the word problematic in its patriarchal connotations. Designed for and tested in classrooms worldwide, The Kingdom of God will be particularly useful in both scripture and theology courses. It holds much food for thought for religious educators, pastoral workers, clergy, and others who wish for a clear, systematic understanding of Jesus' vision of the Kingdom now and to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro aborda lo conceptual acerca de esa conocida corriente filosófica. Está escrito por un sacerdote que es considerado como uno de los principales ideólogos del movimiento en América Latina. Los antecedentes más directos de esta tendencia se dan en Brasil donde a partir de 1957 comienza a gestarse un movimiento religioso con tendencia popular que se establece en las comunidades de base para finalmente consolidarse con el aporte de estudiantes, trabajadores e intelectuales de tendencia católica. Algunos cristianos comenzaron entonces a ocupar criterios marxistas para analizar la sociedad. Otras corrientes religiosas se fueron vinculando, también, a la propuesta de legitimar las revoluciones sociales desde el punto de vista teológico. El fenómeno sería una expresión regional de procesos similares que se habían dado en algunas otras épocas y países; todos ellos con un desencadenante común: la pésima situación económica de la clase proletaria.
Download or read book Liberation Theologies on Shifting Grounds written by Georges de Schrijver and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Besides their insistence on praxis and the application of the Word of God to a given situation, Liberation Theologies make ample use of tools of analysis to uncover root causes of oppression. Now, it is precisely with respect to these tools that Liberation Theologies today find themselves on shifting grounds. In intra-ecclesiastical circles cultural concerns have come to replace socio-economic analysis, whereas after the implosion of the East Bloc the liberationists proper also pay more attention to the issues of gender, ecology, and indigenous movements. The contributions to this volume, originating from various continents, discuss to what extent this shift in emphasis is desirable, and acceptable, and conclude that the cultural focus cannot possibly invalidate but only enrich and complete the socio-economic analysis. They, moreover, try to assess the developments in light of globalization (economics, informatics), on the one hand, and postmodernity on the other. Given the impact of western culture politics, the question arises as to whether the native cultures will succeed in keeping up their religious core values and structures of solidarity - two elements so indispensable for liberative commitments.

Download or read book Can the Subaltern Speak written by Rosalind C. Morris and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak's original essay "Can the Subaltern Speak?" transformed the analysis of colonialism through an eloquent and uncompromising argument that affirmed the contemporary relevance of Marxism while using deconstructionist methods to explore the international division of labor and capitalism's "worlding" of the world. Spivak's essay hones in on the historical and ideological factors that obstruct the possibility of being heard for those who inhabit the periphery. It is a probing interrogation of what it means to have political subjectivity, to be able to access the state, and to suffer the burden of difference in a capitalist system that promises equality yet withholds it at every turn. Since its publication, "Can the Subaltern Speak?" has been cited, invoked, imitated, and critiqued. In these phenomenal essays, eight scholars take stock of the effects and response to Spivak's work. They begin by contextualizing the piece within the development of subaltern and postcolonial studies and the quest for human rights. Then, through the lens of Spivak's essay, they rethink historical problems of subalternity, voicing, and death. A final section situates "Can the Subaltern Speak?" within contemporary issues, particularly new international divisions of labor and the politics of silence among indigenous women of Guatemala and Mexico. In an afterword, Spivak herself considers her essay's past interpretations and future incarnations and the questions and histories that remain secreted in the original and revised versions of "Can the Subaltern Speak?" both of which are reprinted in this book.

Book excerpt: This book is an extraordinarily rich account of the social, political, cultural, and religious relationships between parish priests and their parishioners in colonial Mexico.

Book excerpt: "Father Ignacio Ellacuria, SJ, president of the University of Central America, leading Latin American philosopher, and liberation theologian, was assassinated with five Jesuit companions and two women on November 16, 1989. Love That Produces Hope brings together leading authorities on key aspects of Ellacuria's thought. The book introduces readers to the groundbreaking life and thought of Ignacio Ellacuria. His biography and writings embody late twentieth-century transformations and tensions that reshaped the life of the Catholic church among the crucified peoples of Central America. Love That Produces Hope evaluates the significance of Ellacuria's work, particularly his impact on theology, philosophy, and education. Ellacuria found hope in his faith that God's grace sustains the tenacious struggle of millions of men, women, and children to nurture those they love in the face of poverty and an uncertain future."--Publisher's website.
Download or read book Liberation Method and Dialogue written by Roberto S. Goizueta and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-06-27 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the theological method of liberation theologian Enrique Dussel and, by comparing it with the meta-method of Bernard Lonergan, establishes a paradigm for international theological dialogue. The author suggests that Dussel’s non-reductionist understanding of liberation and Lonergan’s understanding of the subject-as-subject provide a methodological foundation for critical dialogue between Latin American and North American theologians. The methodological maturation of liberation theology rehearsed in this study suggests how the insights of Latin American theology demand the development of an indigenous form of North American theology of liberation.
Download or read book Liberation Theology from Below written by Gonzalo Castillo-Cardenas and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-03-14 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Here sleeps the Indian Manuel Quintín Lame Chantre, October 7, 1967. He was a man who did not bow his head before injustice.” In the Colombian Andes, Indians wrote that epitaph on the cross above Lame’s grave because he led them in a just struggle against “civilization”: against the “whites” and their system that has oppressed and dehumanized the Indians. The first part of this book is a thorough introduction to Lame’s life, his thought, and his historical context: the world of the Indians of the Colombian Andes. The second part of the book contains “Los Pensamientos,” a work written by Lame about a series of theological themes: nature, injustice, God, rebellion, oppression, hope, liberation . . . Gustavo Gutiérrez has written: “One day a theology should develop that comes from the poor themselves. Liberation theology is just one step along the way in this search. I see it as a kind of theological crutch, to be used until the poor create a theology of their own experience, their own world.” Lame’s work answers Gutiérrez’s call. It is a theology that “comes from the poor themselves,” and in its originality, boldness, and propheticism, Lame’s theology surpasses that written by those with ties to the unjust “civilization” that Lame spent much of his life combating.
