Description

This course will review and comparatively evaluate different twentieth and twenty-first century political theologies, including the theology of the social gospel, black liberation theology, Latin American liberation theology, feminist and womanist theologies, eschatological theologies, and postliberal theology. Students will be prompted throughout to develop their own constructive political theologies as they dialogue with these contemporary models. This course may be used as a concentration elective in the Community Advocacy and Social Justice Ministry Specialization or to meet the Biblical Studies/Theology and Social Ethics elective requirement. It cannot be used to meet both requirements.
