Description:

A comprehensive study of "liberation theology", which originated in Catholic Latin America in the 1960s, examining its history, method, and doctrines, and the thought of the major liberation theologists.

Synopsis:

This is a paperback reprint of a book published in 1990. Drawing on both English and Spanish sources, this critical study examines the history, methods and doctrines of Liberation Theology. Sigmund considers the movement's origins in political circumstances in Latin America; provides case studies of its role in such events as the revolution and counter-revolution in Chile; and examines the thought of the major liberation theologians and the position of the Vatican.
