Anchored on postcolonial and liberation theology, this book examines the global ecological crisis within gender justice discourse. Utilizing textual analysis and empirical studies, the book chapters foreground how the African continent, particularly African women, bear the burden of the ecological catastrophe.
Mother Earth, Postcolonial and Liberation Theologies adds another contribution to the ongoing interrogation of an imminent universal crisis, global warming. Examining the environmental crisis from liberation, postcolonial, and theological lenses in Africa, the continent whose people stand to bear the brunt of ecological catastrophe, the contributors provide fresh perspectives that place this book at the forefront of new research being done across the African continent. The volume serves as a compendium for the intersection of African spirituality, cultural expression, and the earth.
