Sociology Brazil Columbia <p>This paper investigates liberation theology's impact upon the societies of Brazil and Colombia. It will emphasize the theology's role in affecting social change. Social change is far from a two-dimensional, simplistic process. Rather, it entails various levels of depth and intricacy and often manifests itself in more subtle ways than just military coups or communist revolutions. Societal change involves individual, personal transformation as well as broad, structural modifications. Patricia Hill Collins (1990:111) speaks of social change being able to occur even within the most microcosmic spheres, such as "in the private, personal space of an individual woman's consciousness." This paper analyzes the impact of liberation theology on the many societal levels in Brazilian and Colombian.</p> 1991 English text Oberlin College Honors Theses / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oberlin1544629042139828 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oberlin1544629042139828 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
