Book Contextual Theology and Revolutionary Transformation in Latin America

Download or read book Contextual Theology and Revolutionary Transformation in Latin America written by Angel D. Santiago-Vendrell and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. audiences know Latin American liberation theologies largely through translations of Latin American Catholics from the 1970s and beyond. Most of the few known Protestant authors were students of Richard Shaull, whose critical thinking on social change, prophetic Christianity, and dialogue with Marxism and Christian use of Marxist analysis precedes the emergence of the formal schools of liberation theology by two decades. His own education at Princeton, and the education he provided in Brazil, charts the course of Protestant influences into this stream of theological reflection that became a global phenomenon in the latter decades of the twentieth century. Also, Shaull's career roughly parallels the emergence of the World Council of Churches and the engagement of the Catholic Church--in Latin America and around the world--after the Second Vatican Council. He himself was engaged, and became the flash point, in some of the major conferences, movements, and institutions of the 1960s and beyond. Santiago-Vendrell documents the entrance of the ecumenical movement in Brazil, among the most dramatic transformations in Catholic-Protestant relations around the globe, as well as Shaull's role in that development. Along the way he notes Shaull's prophetic and destabilizing role in the worldwide student movement in the 60s and 70s, charting decisions that mark the ecumenical movement. Shaull's contributions are important for an understanding of the ethical debates in the worldwide, ecumenical Protestant and Orthodox communities. Santiago-Vendrell examines primary, secondary, and historical documents that shine a light on Shaull's transformation into a contextual theologian of the poor. He offers a definitive view of this North American Protestant missionary who wrote extensively on Latin American liberation theology, the base Christian communities, and how conversion to solidarity with the poor offers transforming possibilities for the mainline churches' theological identity and practical faith.

Book The Making of Book Pedagogy of the Oppressed

Download or read book The Making of Book Pedagogy of the Oppressed written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-11-14 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unanswered question on the making of Pedagogy of the Oppressed is when, where and how this book was written, edited, and published. The Preface of the original Portuguese handwritten manuscript is dated in Chile by 1967. Some scholars imply that the manuscript was finished sometime in March or April 1969. By then, Freire had left Chile and three of his books had been published by the Institute of Research and Training in Agrarian Reform, ICIRA. Freire himself had already committed the English translation, from the original Portuguese manuscript with Herder & Herder in New York, together with the Spanish translation published by Tierra Nueva in Uruguay. This book explores the ways in which Freire’s time and work in Chile proved to be decisive in the making of Pedagogy of the Oppressed, widely considered one of the most important books on critical pedagogy and adult learning and education in the twentieth century. The scope is confined to Paulo Freire's years of political exile in Chile, from late November 1964 to mid-April 1969. It builds upon evidence provided by scholarly research to answer four questions. What did Paulo Freire do during his years of exile in Chile. In which institutional contexts did he develop his pedagogical methods and political ideas? How was his literacy training method and participatory research approach shared throughout Latin America and the rest of the world? To what extent did his exile in Chile influence a paradigm shift in literacy training and adult education?

Book A Rendezvous with My Professional Destiny

Download or read book A Rendezvous with My Professional Destiny written by Belmont F. Haydel and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2003-11-14 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Working closely with Belmont I learned to appreciate his deep commitment to a just and ethical society. He has a deep devotion to the principles of a democratic society and a passion for education. I know that this book, which encompasses over 40 years of Belmont's distinguished work in the diplomatic service, business, academics, and consulting, makes significant contributions to the body of literature of several disciplines. His international business papers are of special interest as they truly develop important theories and actions for international commerce and social responsibility."—Ruben Armiñana, Ph. D., President, Sonoma State University, Rohnert Park, CA."Seldom does one have the opportunity to share in the experiences of a true American diplomat like Belmont Haydel, who has made this book a personal read on the 'business' of international enterprise and government relations. The reader will be captivated by the interpersonal observations of Dr. Haydel's students, friends, and professional associates, as they draw from what he has taught them. The essence of this book comes from understanding what it takes to be a diplomat in good and bad times. This work is timely, given the uncertainty of the present international scenario."—Roy A. Herberger, Jr., Ph. D., President, "Thunderbird, " The American Graduate School of International Management, Glendale, AZ."This no mere eyewitness account. It is a chronicle of how one intelligent and broad-minded American served his country and, at the same time, his own spiritual development throughout a distinguished multi-level career. The notable personalities and events are familiar; what is new and intriguing is how Belmont Haydel's own unique personality intersected with all that history and led to making some of his own."—Michael Skol, former U. S. Ambassador to Venezuela and Assistant Secretary of State for Latin America

Book Econom  a pol  tica desde Estambul a Potos

Download or read book Econom a pol tica desde Estambul a Potos written by Fernando Ramos Palencia and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En l'actualitat, els economistes i els historiadors debaten sobre el paper exercit per les institucions i els estats en el desenvolupament econòmic a llarg termini durant l'Època Moderna. En general, s'assumeix que únicament als països de l'Atlàntic nord, l'estat i els drets de propietat es van configurar de tal manera que serien capaces de generar creixement econòmic a gran escala. De fet, l'aplicació d'aquesta perspectiva ha accentuat el tòpic d'una certa ineficàcia de les institucions del món mediterrani i ofereix una visió estereotipada del paper de l'estat. Aquest llibre pretén ser una contribució crítica que estableixi sinergies amb els economistes actuals i coadjuvi a la comprensió de la història econòmica en les societats preindustrials del sud d'Europa.
