Identity, Ethics, and Nonviolence in Postcolonial Theory: A Rahnerian Theological Assessment

By Susan Abraham

Book Overview

Abraham argues that a theological imagination can expand the contours of postcolonial theory through a reexamination of notions of subjectivity, gender, and violence in a dialogical model with Karl Rahner. She questions of whether postcolonial theory, with its disavowal of religious agency, can provide an invigorating occasion for Catholic theology.
