"This book advances that history by exploring stories, images and discourses across
a worldwide range of geographical, cultural and confessional contexts. Its twelve
authors not only enrich our understanding of the significance of the contextual method,
but also produce a new range of original ways of doing theology in contemporary situations.
The authors discuss some prioritised thematic perspectives with an emphasis on liberating
paths, and expand the ongoing discussion on the methodology of theology into new areas.
Themes such as interreligious plurality, global capitalism, ecumenical liberation
theology, eco-anxiety and the anthropocene, postcolonialism, gender, neo-pentecostalism,
world theology, and reconciliation are examined in situated depth. Additionally, voices
from Indigenous lands, Latin America, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Europe and North
America enter into a dialogue on what it means to contextualise theology in an increasingly
globalised and ever-changing world. Such a comprehensive discussion of new ways of
thinking about and doing contextual theology will be of great use to scholars in Theology,
Religious Studies, Cultural Studies, Political Science, Gender Studies, Environmental
Humanities, and Global Studies"
