Caribbean Contextual Theology introduces readers to the robust theological conversations taking place in the Caribbean region since the early 1970s, and the region’s key theologians and texts. Attempting to bring a contextual theological gaze to what is a fascinating and often understated context, it offers readers an introduction to the unique and important contribution that a Caribbean theological lens can bring to the broader theological landscape.

"Caribbean Theology has long been the radical, decolonial, resistance hermeneutic that has defined the intent of a people to be free of the machinations of colonialism. This important new book by Carlton Turner represents the latest iteration of Caribbean Theology. It offers a bold and imaginative restatement for the necessity for a liberationist theological project committed to the freeing of poor and marginalised peoples."
