Book Description
Looking beyond prominent figures or major ecclesial events, Liberation Theology and the Others offers a fresh historical perspective on Latin American liberation theology. Thirteen case studies, from Mexico to Uruguay, depict a vivid picture of religious and lay activism that shaped the profile of the Latin American Catholic Church in the second half of the 20th century. Stressing the transnational character of Catholic activism and its intersections with prevalent discourses of citizenship, ethnicity or development, scholars from Latin America, the US, and Europe, analyze how pastoral renewal was debated and embraced in multiple local and culturally diverse contexts. Contributors explore the connections between Latin American liberation theology and anthropology in Peru, armed revolutionaries in highland Guatemala, and the implementation of neoliberalism in Bolivia. They identify conceptions of the popular church, indigenous religiosity, women’s leadership, and student activism that circulated among Latin American religious and lay activists between the 1960s and the 1980s. By revisiting the multifaceted and oftentimes contingent nature of church reforms, this edited volume provides fascinating new insights into one of the most controversial religious movements of the 20th century.

Book Description
Latin American theology is associated with liberation, basic Christian communities, primacy of praxis and option for the poor. The present volume shows that Latin American theologians added new themes to the previous ones: religious pluralism, inter-religious dialogue and macro-ecumenism. It is the fruit of a program of the Theological Commission of the Ecumenical Association of Third World Theologians (EATWOT) in Latin America, to work out a liberating theology of religions.

Book Description
In Reading the Bible Across Contexts Esa Autero offers a fresh perspective on Luke’s poverty texts. In addition to an historical reading, he conducted an empirical investigation of two Latin American Bible reading groups – one poor and the other affluent – to shed light on Luke’s poverty texts. The interaction between historical reading and present-day readings demonstrates the impact of socio-economic status on biblical hermeneutics and sheds new light on Luke’s views on wealth and poverty. At the same time Esa Autero critically examines liberation theologian’s claim that poor are privileged biblical interpreters.

Book Description
The concept of a preferential option for the poor calls for a special attention to the weakest members of a particular society. Such an option is a challenge for the ethics of science as well. How can we pursue an "option for the poor" in the humanities? Can we do that without generating "ideologies"? This volume gives an account of these questions. Representatives of sociology, religious studies, law, economics, theology, history and philosophy try to answer this question. It is manifest that the discussion of an option for the poor is also a matter of intellectual integrity.

Book Description
Durante los pasados cincuenta años, el énfasis sobre la práctica y estrategia de la obra misionera ha menoscabado el valor de la importancia de la teología de la misión. Sin embargo, en las últimas décadas teólogos y misiólogos de todas las tradiciones cristianas han comenzado a reexaminar y repensar las suposiciones teológicas que fundamentan la obra misionera. En Misión en el Camino Charles Van Engen articula con claridad muchos de los conceptos fundamentales de la teología de la misión. Charles Van Engen, en este volumen, aborda numerosos temas misiológicos centrales. Examina la cuestión de construir teologías en contextos específicos, tales como en la ciudad. También nos muestra tanto los beneficios como las preocupaciones que experimentamos cuando alentamos a los creyentes a teologizar dentro de su propio entorno, cuando tomamos con seriedad el sacerdocio de todos los creyentes. Hace un delineamiento de los debates actuales sobre asuntos levantados por el pluralismo religioso, y batalla con la manera en que podemos proclamar el carácter único de Cristo, sin ser arrogantes y triunfalistas. Echa una mirada al impacto que la modernidad y la posmodernidad están teniendo sobre el movimiento misionero en Occidente, y hace un llamado a la renovación de nuestro compromiso como seguidores de Jesucristo en los duros ambientes culturales de nuestros días. Explora los roles cambiantes de misioneros y ministros en iglesias jóvenes, y levanta preguntas difíciles relacionadas con la unidad de la iglesia en medio de su proliferación, diversidad y fragmentación de carácter global. Son de excepcional valor, la manera en que Van Engen traza la historia de la discusión reciente sobre cada uno de estos asuntos y la riqueza de fuentes bibliográficas que nos presenta para más estudio. Igualmente, importantes son las repuestas que él ofrece a estas cuestiones, respuestas que nos ayudan a movernos más allá de los caminos sin salida que tanto caracterizan nuestro pensamiento actual. (Tomado del Prólogo escrito por Pablo Hiebert.)

Book Description
Drawing on decolonial perspective, this book provides a critical retrieval of Sergio Arce’s theological thought, and proposes it as a source of inspiration to continue renewing liberation theologies in Cuba and in Latin America. In light of current social contexts in Cuba and abroad, this volume examines the relevance of Arce’s theological legacy, identifying significant contributions and also key limitations. It presents a panoramic view of the historical contexts previous to Arce’s articulation of his theology, and also reconstructs the various stages of the development of his theology by reviewing his major writings from the early 1960s to the late 1990s. Bringing Arce into a conversation with other recognized Latin American liberation theologians, this book delivers a reconstruction of his major theological insights related to discourses and practices of liberation, highlighting important similarities and differences between their approaches.
