Beskrivning
A collection of essays exploring the development of the Asian theology of minjung, and its role and influence in global Christian thinking.In this volume, an attempt is undertaken to highlight the genesis, progress, and transformation of Asian contextual theology of minjung, introducing its historical point of departure, its development, and its transformation in light of younger Korean and Korean American scholars' endeavors. In this regard, the new Asian contextual theology, which is emerging, strives to integrate both minjung and the wisdom of World Religions into its own framework and direction, assuming the character of a public theology and remaining humble and open before God's mystery while featuring its association with minjung in a holistic way.

Theology, May/June 2011 ...this book makes a useful contribution to Asian contextual theology which serious researchers cannot afford to bypass.A" Minjung theology is the first liberation theology to come from Asia, with critical questions put to the First World, and questions too challenging the modernization of South Korea according to Western standards. - Minjung theology is ... a contextual theology of the suffering people in Korea, and is therefore open for people all over the world, the people of God's kingdom whom Jesus called blessed." Jurgen Moltmann, Professor Emeritus at the University of Tubingen, Germany "Specialists in the field will want to include this volume in their library." Beau Pihlaja, in Theological Book Review " - this book makes a useful contribution to Asian contextual theology which serious researchers cannot afford to bypass." Peniel Jesudason Rufus Rajkumar, United Theological College, Bangalore, in Theology
