How is theology liberating? In this post-Gorbachev world in which many demand freedom, and which the West seems ill-equipped to deliver, can we even envisage a liberative theology? Taking as his starting point the Marxist complaint that Christianity is ideological, Dr Scott argues that it is not enough for Christian theology to talk about liberation. It must be liberative. Stressing with feminist and liberation theologies the embodied, contextual nature of theology, the constructive proposal made here locates God's liberating abundance towards society in an interpretation of resurrection as social. Only in this way can a trinitarian Christian account of liberation be adequately grounded. This study will be of interest to those who wish to know if theology may speak truthfully about the transformation of society. In a period of crisis and hope, the book offers the shape of a liberative theology that might nerve Christian practice towards social freedom.

Autorenporträt
Peter Scott is a Sydney-based software developer and part-time writer. His research and writing interest are life journeys of people and family heirlooms-what the journeys reveal about family, society and change through time. In 2019, he identified 212 entries in an Australian schoolgirl's 1909-1912 autograph album, and outlined 100 lives. The time before today's technology, their life choices and how society treated them. It inspired The Face Beyond the Window set in 2041.
