Originally published in 2004. In Brazil the liberationist reading
of the Bible was once supposed to be an unstoppable force for
social change, yet many observers now say that in the era of
neo-liberalism the liberationist project may be counted all but
dead. In Legacies of Liberation, John Burdick offers a bold new
interpretation of the state of the Catholic liberationism.
Challenging the claim that it is dead, Burdick carefully builds the
case that it continues to exert a major influence on Brazilian
society and culture, through its penetration of a broad range of
grassroots struggles, especially those having to do with race,
gender, and land. Burdick brings to bear on his analysis an
understanding of Brazil rooted in twenty years of fieldwork, and a
perspective shaped by anthropology, theology and history.
