The Challenges of Vatican II for an Authentic Indian Catholic Church
The Vatican II was an event of a new facelift for the entire edifice of the Catholic ecclesiology. It called for the renewal in the universal Catholic Church. This book deals with the question: How can the Catholic Church in India accept the council's challenge for renewal and become truly Indian in its being and essence? Undertaking a systematic examination of the post-conciliar ecclesiological development in the Indian Catholic Church, in its existential multi-religious and multi-cultural context, the author attempts to develop an ecclesiological reflection for the Indian context.
The Poor in Liberation Theology
Liberation theology has, since its beginnings over forty years ago, placed the poor at the heart of theology and revealed the ideologies underlying both society and church. Meanwhile, over this period, the progressive church appears to have stagnated and the poor of Latin America have turned increasingly to neo-Pentecostalism. 'The Poor in Liberation Theology' questions whether the effect of liberation theology is to provide a pathway to God or really to construct idols out of the poor. Combining the conceptual language of the philosophers Jean-Luc Marion and Emmanuel Levinas with the methodology of the liberation theologian Clodovis Boff, the volume outlines how liberation theology can work to ensure the poor do not become an ideological construct but remain icons of God. Drawing on a wealth of material from Latin American and Europe, the book demonstrates the continuing validity and importance of liberation theology and its further potential when engaged with contemporary philosophy.
Along the Many Paths of God
Latin American theology is associated with liberation, basic Christian communities, primacy of praxis and option for the poor. The present volume shows that Latin American theologians added new themes to the previous ones: religious pluralism, inter-religious dialogue and macro-ecumenism. It is the fruit of a program of the Theological Commission of the Ecumenical Association of Third World Theologians (EATWOT) in Latin America, to work out a liberating theology of religions.
The Transnational Legacy of Jean Piaget
This book presents a collection of studies on the circulation of Jean Piaget’s ideas and works between Europe and Latin America, and how this transnational legacy influenced different fields of research and practice, such as psychology, education and philosophy. The volume brings together contributions presented at the International Colloquium Jean Piaget in Brazil and Latin America, held during the 38th Annual Helena Antipoff Meeting, organized by the Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in collaboration with the University of Geneva, Switzerland. The book is organized in three parts. Chapters in the first part analyze Piaget’s role as a builder of an international network in psy...
Por uma paróquia sinodal
Este livro, inspirado no Concílio Vaticano II, retoma elementos de um itinerário pastoral para as paróquias católicas que vem sendo negligenciado diante dos desafios do mundo de hoje. Essa negligência, simbolizada por um medo do novo, tem levado a Igreja Católica a oferecer respostas superficiais. Assim, apontam-se perspectivas úteis aos agentes de pastoral (bispos, padres, religiosos e religiosas, leigos e leigas) para que, de forma sinodal, retomem o Caminho – nome que seguidores e seguidoras de Jesus Cristo deram para a continuidade do projeto vivido e anunciado pelo Nazareno.

Natives, Iberians, and Imperial Loyalties in the South American Borderlands, 1750–1800
This book examines the efforts of Spaniards and Portuguese to attract Native peoples and other settlers to the villages, missions, and fortifications they installed in a disputed area between present-day Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay. The first part examines how autonomous Native peoples and those who lived in the Jesuit missions responded to the Indigenous policies the Iberian crowns initiated following the 1768 expulsion of the Society of Jesus. The second part examines military recruitment and supply circuits, showing how the political centers’ strategy of transferring part of the costs and delegating responsibilities to local sectors shaped interactions between officers, soldiers, Natives, and other inhabitants. Moving beyond national approaches, the book shows how both Iberian empires influenced each other and the lives of the diverse peoples who inhabited the border regions.

COMENTARIO BÍBLICO-TEOLÓGICO LATINOAMERICANO SOBRE MEDELLÍN
El Comentario Bíblico-Teológico lleva a cabo una revisión crítica pero propositiva de los horizontes y prácticas eclesiales que han emergido a partir de la II Conferencia General del Episcopado Latinoamericano que tuvo lugar en Medellín (Colombia) en 1968. Tanto el evento como los documentos de ahí emanados pusieron en marcha un cambio profundo de la identidad y práctica eclesial latinoamericana cuyos frutos, pero también tareas pendientes constituyen el paisaje actual de la Iglesia católica en América Latina.
