Contemporary Theologies

Knowledge-Values Courses: Christian Tradition

This course offers a survey of 20th and 21st century theological approaches starting with an introduction into theological methodology and then critically discussing liberation theology, feminist, queer, and liberal and post-liberal theology, as well as other approaches. The goal of the course is an understanding of how theology works: It does not deal with a stable, unchangeable set of “doctrine,” but offers creative responses to the complexities of our world.
