How is theology liberating? In the context of a post-Gorbachev
world, where many demand freedom which the Western powers seem
ill-equipped to deliver, is it even possible to envisage a
liberative theology? Taking as his starting point the Marxist
complaint that Christianity is ideological, Peter Scott argues that
it is not enough for Christian theology to talk about liberation:
it must be liberative. Stressing with feminist and liberation
theologies the embodied, contextual nature of theology, the
constructive proposal made here locates God's liberating abundance
toward society in an interpretation of resurrection as social. Only
in this way, in the author's view, can a trinitarian Christian
account of liberation be adequately grounded. The book will be of
interest to all those who wish to know if theology may speak
truthfully about the transformation of society: it offers the shape
of a liberative theology pointing towards social freedom.
