Resumen
DE AQUINO JUNIOR, Francisco. CURRENT STATE OF THE LIBERATION THEOLOGY. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2011, vol.61, n.172, pp.397-422. ISSN 0120-3649.
This article deals with the current state of the Theology of Liberation. It starts explaining the double sense of the expression Liberation Theology (theological praxis-theological theory) and the "central intuitions" which internally characterize and structure it (primacy of praxis and the perspective of the poor/oppressed). Then, it is contrasted with the current issues facing this Theology (presence, visibility, relevance, appropriateness). Finally, the text presents its most important and fundamental challenges: God's partiality regarding the poor, faith as the realization of God's will, the problems of mediation, the theological-prophetical character of popular struggles, and the relation between theory and praxis.
Palabras clave : Liberation Theology; praxis; the poor-oppressed; current state.
