Liberation Theology : The Essential Facts about the Revolutionary Movement in Latin America and Beyond

---

Outline : Liberation theology has become an essential component of debate in the Catholic Church today. It is changing the face of political life in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and much of South America, and has played a role in the growing discontent of debt-plagued Brazil. In the Philippines it has contributed to the rise of "people power". Liberation theology is probably the most significant religious movement to challenge the doctrine of the Catholic Church since the Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth century. In this outspoken book Phillip Berryman traces the origins, spread and impact of liberation theology. He show how its proponents have radically reinterpreted basic Biblical themes from the perspective of the poor and the disenfranchised. By asking not "What must I believe?" but rather "What is to be done?" they make a direct connection between religious beliefs and political life. Moving beyond the cliches and misconceptions. 1, Phillip Berruman shows us how liberation theology has made history not only in Latin America, but around the world.
