In November 1989, six members of the Jesuit community of the
University of Central America in San Salvador, including the
rector, Ignacio Ellacuria, were massacred by government troops.
Twenty-five years later, this book provides the definitive account
of the path led to that fateful day, focusing on the Jesuits'
prophetic option for the poor, their role in the renewal of
Salvadoran church and society, and the critical steps that caused
them, as Archbishop Romero would put it, to "share the same fate as
the poor." Drawing on newly available archival materials and
extensive interviews, Robert Lassalle-Klein gives special attention
to the theological contributions of Ellacuria and Jon Sobrino, who
survived the massacre, and the emergence among the Jesuit community
of a spirituality that recognized the risen Christ in what
Ellacuria called "the crucified people of El Salvador." This
insight led, in turn, to the development of the most important
advance in the idea of a Christian university since the time of
Cardinal Newman. Blood and Ink tells a vital story of a religious
and university community's conversion and renewal that speaks to
the ongoing challenge of discipleship today.
In the field of business and management, the core concept
associated with migration sees "difference and distance" as
liabilities, whether they are national, cultural, geographic, or
semantic. While existing research is valuable, recently it has been
suggested that an emphasis on liabilities and adverse outcomes
associated with such differences may hinder our understanding of
the conditions that help to leverage the value of diversity in a
wide range of contexts. Global Migration, Entrepreneurship and
Society seeks to explore these seemingly interconnected processes,
offering a safe space to critically examine the specific political
contexts of excluded groups and develop a much-needed theoretical
and policy-related set of writings that can cast light on the
workings and complexities of processes of global migration,
entrepreneurship and societal integration.
