Text of Note

Colonial Contexts and Postcolonial Theology focuses on what postcolonial theologies look like in colonial contexts, particularly in dialogue with the First Nations Peoples in Australia and the Asia-Pacific. The contributors have roots in the Asia-Pacific, but the struggles, theologies and concerns they address are shared across the seas.

Postcolonial theology -- Asia.

Postcolonial theology -- Pacific Area.

Postcolonialism -- Asia.
