For many years the theology of liberation, which emerged from Latin America in the 1970s, was viewed with suspicion and even hostility in Rome. In this historic exchange, Father Gustavo Guti???rrez, one of the original architects of liberation theology, and Cardinal Gerhard M???ller, current Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, offer a new and positive chapter.

In his own contribution here, Guti???rrez lays out the essential ideas of liberation theology, its ecclesial location, and its fresh enunciation of the gospel for our time.
