VELEZ-CARO, Olga Consuelo. Theological Work and the Participatory Action Research Method. A Theological Reflection. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2017, vol.67, n.183, pp.187-208. ISSN 0120-3649.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.tx67-183.qtmiap.

The article intends to examine the articulations between the methods in Theology and the Social Sciences method of Participatory Action Research (PAR), taking into account the importance that the latter has for the development of contextual theologies. Methods in Theology are briefly examined and the Participatory Action Research’s method is presented. Such contextualization shows the possibilities and limits of this methodological articulation. Besides, it invites us to continue the theological journey that takes seriously into account the autonomy of reality and seeks to discover God’s revelation in reality, which enlightens and effectively transforms it.

Palabras clave : Method; Epistemology; Liberation; Theology of Action; Participatory Action Research.
