The book sets out to address and answer three questions from the
point of view of Christian theology. The first is, from where does
theology speak? The second is, what are the mechanisms whereby
cultures change? The third is, how might we conceive the
relationship between the contemporary production of theological
discourse and the transformation of cultures more generally?
Drawing upon the work of standpoint epistemologists, cultural
anthropologists and social scientists, the book argues that public
acts of interpretation are involvements in renegotiating the future
direction of cultural change. Though the enquiry is conducted from
one particular standpoint - Christian theology - the observations
and suggestions it makes regarding cultural transformation and the
defense it makes of syncretism have more general application.
