A influência da teologia da libertação na luta por justiça social: análise de suas contribuições e relevância no contexto contemporâneo

Abstract

Theology of Liberation, developed in Latin America during the 1960s and 1970s, emerged as a theological and pastoral response to poverty and oppression, proposing a critical reading of the Gospel from the perspective of the poor and marginalized. This work seeks to analyze the influence of Liberation Theology in the struggle for social justice, examining its historical contributions and its relevance in the contemporary context. The research addresses the relationship between this theology and social movements, highlighting its impact on social transformation and the promotion of human rights. Additionally, the study investigates how the principles of Liberation Theology continue to inspire actions for social justice today in different parts of the world.
