This book argues that at the heart of social abandonment is idolatry, and that we do not live in a secular world anymore but an idolatrous one. It believes that poor blacks suffer more than middle class blacks, that poor women suffer more than middle class women.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eControversial and brilliant. Petrella is one of the leading voices in twenty-first century Latin American Liberation Theology.' Marcella Althaus-Reid, PhD Chair in Contextual Theology, School of Divinity, University of Edinburgh  'Ivan Petrella's brilliant and bold book raises several timely and important challenges for future work within \u0026amp; about liberation theologies. He has produced a seamless and compelling integration of theology, economics, and legal theory, both addressing and stimulating debate with the major liberation theologies of the Americas. His analysis will be key for years to come.' Otto Maduro, Professor of Latin American Christianity \u0026amp; World Christianity, Drew University Theological School  'In this timely and well-argued book Ivan Petrella's thought gets even more incisive and original. The current state of the world requires the challenge of liberation theology because the poor are dying everywhere, not only in the so-called Third World. Theology, economics and legal theory come together in this wonderful canvas of social reflexivity; this is a book that will remain seminal to all theologians in the 21st Century.' Mario I. Aguilar, Chair of Religion and Politics, Director, Centre for the Study of Religion and Politics (CSRP), St Mary's College, University of St Andrews","brand":"SCM Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51767419634007,"sku":"9780334041344","price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780334041344.jpg?v=1758713249","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/beyond-liberation-theology-a-polemic-reclaiming-liberation-theology-9780334041344","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
