RLG 274 - Liberation Theology (3 Cr.)
Through delving into the writings of particular theologians of liberation such as Jon Sobrino, Gustavo Guieterrez, James Cone, and others, students examine the meaning, significance, and methods of liberation theology. Their exploration will include the following questions. Why is it called “liberation” theology? What vision of God, the world, and human beings does it proclaim? What does it criticize about the world and the church? Students meet and interview people in the community who are linked with the practice of liberation theology in various contexts. Prerequisite: one course in religion or sophomore standing. Fall 2016 and alternate years thereafter. Douglas.
