Contextualización, intercontextualidad, y el gran contexto del cambio climático
Abstract
Latin American liberation theology is recognized as one of the first contextual theologies. The first part of this article examines how contextualization has been understood in different theologies and asks how to return elements of criticality to the concept of contextualization. In addition, the author considers it important to incorporate intercontextuality into theological work. For that, she turns to the concept of catholicity. Every day the climate crisis shows us that despite our efforts to define different contexts, all contexts exist within a single climate system.
It is urgent that theological reflection recognize this greater context of human and non-human communities in its efforts to articulate a theology of life. At the same time, climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts touch every context and require the recovery of ancestral wisdom and the articulation of local theologies.
