Beskrivelse
This book is a political and theological reflection on the violence and injustice that has taken place in Mexico and Central America since 2006 as a result of the drug war, considered through the lens of the cultural and economic aspects of globalization. In order to understand and respond to this conflict, William A. Walker III combines the work of philosopher Enrique Dussel and theologian Hans Urs von Balthasar to develop a theology of the drug war that transcends both a Eurocentric conception of the world and a merely political account of salvation. Walker also highlights examples of Christian and church-based approaches to practicing neighborliness and resistance to drug trade- related violence, challenging both Christians and non-Christians to participate in the creation of a more just and merciful society.
