Liberation theology is widely referred to in discussions of
politics and religion but not always adequately understood. The
second edition of this Companion brings the story of the movement's
continuing importance and impact up to date. Additional essays,
which complement those in the original edition, expand upon the
issues by dealing with gender and sexuality and the important
matter of epistemology. In the light of a more conservative ethos
in Roman Catholicism, and in theology generally, liberation
theology is often said to have been an intellectual movement tied
to a particular period of ecumenical and political theology. These
essays indicate its continuing importance in different contexts and
enable readers to locate its distinctive intellectual ethos within
the evolving contextual and cultural concerns of theology and
religious studies. This book will be of interest to students of
theology as well as to sociologists, political theorists and
historians.
