The authors describe the advent, context, and significance of Liberation Theology by historicizing and revisiting the global role of the Catholic Church and its stances on social justice in different places and historical times. Throughout the book, the authors engage in deep intergenerational conversations to unpack--and in the process understand--the stances of the Eritrean Catholic Church on the evolving sociopolitical and economic conditions in Eritrea since independence in 1991. They critically examine the country's variegated path to its current state and invoke visionary legacies of Eritrean and African intellectuals and spiritual leaders in search for answers to the complex questions of democracy, nationalism, and identity. Consisting of four chapters, the book provides fresh perspectives on what it takes to initiate critical, constructive, and intergenerational dialogue so essential in the contemporary reality of the African postcolony, in general, and Eritrea, in particular."--Publisher's summary. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $z Eritrea. 610 20 $a Catholic Church. $b Catholic Bishops of Eritrea. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $v Pastoral letters and charges. 650 0 $a Church and state $z Eritrea. 650 0 $a Liberation theology $z Eritrea. 650 0 $a Social justice $z Eritrea $x Religious aspects. 650 0 $a Social justice $x Catholic Church. $x Catholic Church. 650 0 $a Church and social problems $z Eritrea. 650 0 $a Church and social problems $x Catholic Church. 650 0 $a Postcolonialism $z Eritrea. 700 1 $a Weldemichael, Awet Tewelde, $e author. 710 22 $a Catholic Church. $b Catholic Bishops of Eritrea. $t Where is your brother. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210015834.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BBD18B7A840811E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
