Out of Place

"e;Place"e; shapes human identity and community. Arguing that theologies are shaped by place so no theology can be universal, "e;Out of Place"e; assesses the ways in which theology, as a discipline and a practice, is "e;out of place"e;. Departing from dominant theological discourse, the book argues that for theology to be transformative it must connect with "e;place"e; and engage with marginalised peoples and cultures. Ranging across Asian American theology to Tamils in the London diaspora, Australian Pentecostalism to HIV and AIDS sufferers, "e;Out of Place"e; will be of invaluable to scholars and students of sociology and religion interested in the intersection of theology and locality.
