Abstract | Liberation theology is traditionally associated with Latin America. This article shows that liberation theologies are very much alive also in Asia, not only among Christians, but also among other believers. He first introduces the reader to Christian liberation theologies coming from Korea (Minjung Theology), from the Philippines (the Theology of Struggle) and India (Dalit Theology). Then the reader is introduced to liberation theologies from different Asian religions. In the conclusion, the a. points to some elements that are characteristic of Asian liberation theologies: they are inter-religious, integral, and engaged in non-violent conflict with an eschatological vision. |
