I N T R O D U C T I O N A N D O V E R V I E WThis web site presents Liberation TheologyTheologies as efforts to think clearly about the meaning of religious faith and action in the context of oppression, war, poverty, inequality and environmental destruction, and the effort to live a compassionate, courageous and life sustaining response to those conditions. Over the past several decades, people inspired by different strands of Liberation Theology have sought to give voice to a response that both addresses the needs of those who are injured and oppressed in a particular place and time, and also a response that works to change the structures and ongoing processes of injury and oppression. Liberation theologies vary greatly according to the cultures in which they arise, but their underlying themes are immediately recognizable across the world the transformation of everyday life through a new awakening of compassion, courage, truthfulness and justice. Liberation theology and theologies, singular and plural, are works in progress, born out of enormous pain and extraordinary hope, efforts which are sure to inspire many and probably offend many, as well.
