This episode’s guest is Maria Clara Bingemer, Professor of Theology at the Pontificial Catholic University in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In this episode, we are in conversation with Maria about her book Latin American Theology: Roots and Branches (Orbis Books, 2016). Maria discusses the origins of liberation theology in Latin America, the Vatican's repression of theologians over several decades, and the dramatic changes that have taken place since the beginning of the pontificate of Pope Francis. Following Gustavo Gutiérrez, she speaks of the universal pretensions of liberation theology as a proposal that centers the poor as both the subject and method of an entirely new way of doing theology. She also shares about recent theological developments in eco-feminism and the global struggles for a habitable earth amid the climate catastrophe.
