In Paths to a theology of the people and culture, Rocco Buttiglione proposes a profound and renewing reflection on the “theology of the people,” a theological-pastoral position that originated in post-Council Argentina and consolidated in the Puebla Conference. With a prologue by Pope Francis, the author places the believing people—understood as a historical and cultural subject—as the architect of liberation: their liberation is integral (land, housing, and work), and it is from their concrete experience that the Christian message is authentically embodied. Buttiglione advocates for a theology that dialogues with philosophy, economics, and the human sciences, and that seeks to build justice and peace from popular history and culture, offering a contextualized theology open to interhuman dialogue.
