Constructing Local Theologies

Constructing Local Theologies

In the thirty years since this groundbreaking work first appeared, the themes of inculturation and contextualization have become familiar.

For many years Constructing Local Theologies has been the basic handbook for anyone interested in understanding the theological implication of cultural pluralism.
