It also intends to offer an alternative view of human rights, through which such rights may be understood as instruments to combat poverty. In order to do so, an approach to what may be understood as poverty is presented, and subsequently, two projects on the subject are analyzed, the first project carried out by the Unite Nations Human Rights Council and the second developed by the Theology of Liberation in Latin America. The analysis leads to the conclusion that both projects, albeit based on different foundations, recognize that poverty is a violation of human rights and that this justifies the obligations entailed on all duty bearers regarding poverty combat; these obligations include legal, institutional and structural reforms. Finally, it is pointed out that both projects analyzed offer alternatives to the conception of human rights, from the perspective of the poor, suggesting that the rights that best serve those who suffer with poverty and its combat should be made priority. / A presente dissertação propõe-se a contribuir para o reconhecimento da pobreza como violação dos direitos humanos, e a analisar as vantagens que podem decorrer deste reconhecimento. Presta-se, também, a oferecer uma visão alternativa dos direitos humanos, por meio da qual estes sejam entendidos como instrumentos de combate à pobreza. Para tanto, é feita uma abordagem relativa ao que se pode entender por pobreza e, em seguida, são analisados dois trabalhos sobre a matéria, o primeiro promovido pelo Conselho de Direitos Humanos das Nações Unidas e o segundo desenvolvido pela Teologia da Libertação na América Latina. Conclui-se que ambos os trabalhos, embora se utilizando de fundamentos diversos, reconhecem que a pobreza é uma violação dos direitos humanos, e que isto justifica a imposição a todos de obrigações relativas ao seu combate, as quais incluem reformas legais, institucionais e estruturais. Aponta-se, por fim, que ambos os trabalhos propõem alternativas à concepção de direitos humanos, sob a perspectiva dos pobres, entendendo que devem ser priorizados os direitos que melhor atendem àqueles que sofrem com a pobreza e ao combate desta.

Sua origem localiza-se na conexão de demandas, embates políticos e teológicos, num país recém-saído da ditadura militar. Seu acervo acolhe obras oriundas de diferentes conventos franciscanos e aquelas que foram incorporadas com o intuito de atender reflexões balizadas por questões sociais, cujos referenciais teóricos situam-se na teologia da libertação. Essa biblioteca se inscreve na história da presença franciscana na educação superior brasileira, sobretudo na década de 1970, quando os franciscanos assumiram a direção do Instituto de Ensino Superior da Região Bragantina, em 1976. Essa pesquisa contemplou duas linhas de investigação simultâneas. Na primeira, analisou obras e documentos que permitiram identificar aspectos das histórias e memórias da formação de tal biblioteca e, na segunda pesquisou a composição de seu acervo e os princípios que nortearam sua organização e acesso. Tomar essa biblioteca como objeto de pesquisa significou refletir tanto acerca das implicações da valorização das histórias e memórias franciscanas quanto atentar para conservação de um patrimônio bibliográfico singular pela Ordem Franciscana. / Abstract: This thesis focuses the Library Library of the Franciscan Institute of Anthropology - IFAN of the University San Francisco, located in Bragança Paulista (São Paulo - Brazil), established in 1984. The Library emerged from necessity of the Institut, but in the middle of demands and theological and political conflicts of a country recently emerged from the military dictatorship. The collection hosts singular documents from Franciscan convents in addition to those that were incorporated to meet reflections buoyed by social issues, whose theoretical frameworks on the Theology of Liberation. This library is inscribed in the history of the Franciscan presence in the Brazilian higher education, especially in the 1970s, when the Franciscans took charge of the Institute of Higher Education the region of Bragança Paulista in 1976. This research included two simultaneous lines of inquiry. At first, it analyzed works and documents that have identified aspects of the stories and memories of the formation of such a library and the second line investigated the composition of its collection and the principles that guided its organization and access. Having this library as research object meant to reflect both on the implications of the valuation of Franciscan stories and memories and the attention to the conservation and preservation of a unique bibliographic patrimony of the Franciscan Order. / Doutorado / Educação, Conhecimento, Linguagem e Arte / Doutor em Educação

[pt] O Deus de Jesus Cristo nos convoca sempre a optar pelas vítimas deste mundo. Nosso trabalho acadêmico concentra-se na esperança das mesmas e na promessa de resgatá-las como chave de leitura hermenêutica teológica. Aspira-se reconhecer que na Teologia de Jon Sobrino existe uma urgente necessidade do zelo teológico centrado no Mistério da presença misericordiosa de Deus na história. Neste sentido, amplia-se o olhar para os novos rostos de vítimas na realidade Latino- Americana e Caribenha que emergem da Globalização. E com a convicção de que fazer teologia a partir de testemunhas enriquece e aprofunda a teologia de textos, o ensejo é registrar e aclamar o rosto humano de Deus nas vítimas, enfocando a ética, a mística e a profecia à luz da teologia de Jon Sobrino. / [en] The God of Jesus Christ calls upon us to opt for the victims of this world. Our essay focuses on the hope of these victims and on the promise of rescuing them as the key of theological hermeneutic reading. We aspire to acknowledge that in Jon Sobrino’s theology there is an urgent need for the theological concern, centered in the Mystery of God’s merciful presence throughout history. With that in mind, attention given to the new victims brought up by globalization in the reality of Latin America and Caribbean must be amplified. Our aim is to register and proclaim the human face of God in the victims, focusing on ethics, mystique and in the prophecy in the light of Jon Sobrino’s theology, with the conviction that making theology from witnesses enriches and deepens the text’s theology.

[pt] Um papa do fim do mundo, uma teologia do terceiro mundo e uma Igreja para todo o mundo propõe uma análise da possibilidade para a Igreja do terceiro milênio a partir da eleição de um argentino vindo do fim do mundo como papa, e de sua experiência como sacerdote pós-conciliar. Nesse lugar do qual veio o papa Francisco, as terras da América Latina e do Caribe, também se produziu uma singular teologia ao final do século XX, que refletia as condições sociais, políticas, econômicas e culturais do povo latino-americano: a teologia da libertação. Esta dissertação apresenta uma biografia de Jorge Mario Bergoglio, um panorama histórico da Argentina que recebeu os imigrantes europeus no início do século XX, entre eles a família do futuro papa, e o impacto da escolha do nome Francisco. Na sequência, traz a história do desenvolvimento da teologia no Novo Mundo, que culminou com o surgimento da teologia da libertação, suas principais ideias e, por fim, analisa as propostas eclesiológicas do papa Francisco apresentadas na Evangelii Gaudium, em consonância com as principais temáticas da teologia da libertação, sua defesa dos pobres, explorados e desfavorecidos como projeto de missão da Igreja e, principalmente, sua percepção da necessidade de atualizar a Igreja (retomando as originais propostas do Concílio Vaticano II especialmente concretizadas em Medellín), para um mundo que hoje se descortina plural e crítico. / [en] A pope from the end of the world, a theology of the third world and a Church for the whole world proposes an analysis of the possibility for the third millennium Church as from the election of an Argentinian coming from the end of the world as pope and as of his experience as a post-conciliar priest. In this place where pope Francis came from, the lands of Latin America and the Caribbean, a singular theology also took place at the end of the twentieth century, reflecting the social, political, economic and cultural conditions of the Latin American people: the liberation theology. This dissertation presents a biography of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, a historical panorama of Argentina that received European immigrants in the early twentieth century, including the family of the future pope, and the impact of the choice of the name Francisco. It then traces the history of the development of theology in the New World culminating in the emergence of liberation theology and its main ideas. Finally, analyses the ecclesiological proposals of pope Francis presented in the Evangelii Gaudium in accordance with the main themes of the liberation theology, his defense of the poor, the exploited and the disadvantaged people as a missionary project of the Church and, mainly, his perception of the necessity to update the Church (taking up the original proposals of the Second Vatican Council, especially the ones concretised in Medellin) to a world that unveils itself as plural and critical.

Evangelicals have an unquestionable heritage for involvement in the world and its social problems and the Bible provides a basis for a liberative gospel. For the God of the Bible is not only a God of love and peace, but also of justice and he is therefore on the side of the poor, oppressed and suffering. he has given us a spirit of engagement with the world as salt and light and not escapism. As we give serious consideration to the challenges of liberation theologies, we need to hear the voice who calls his people in every age to go out into the lost and lonely world (as he did), in order to live and love, to witness and serve like him and for him and that is what African Evangelicalism is all about. / Systematic Theology and Theological Ethics / M.

The shari‘a, or the inherited legal tradition, has tended to dominate discussions of contemporary Islam. Relatively little attention has been given to the Qur’an, however, despite its importance both in terms of Muslim theology, in which it is understood as the actual Word of God, and of Islamic reformist thought. Far from being marginal, the Qur’an has emerged as a rich resource for theological reflection and sociopolitical action. Specifically, it has become a source of empowerment, speaking to contexts of oppression. This thesis examines the commentaries of four Muslim intellectuals who have expounded the Qur’an as a liberating text – namely, the South African Farid Esack (b. 1956), the Indian Asghar Ali Engineer (b. 1939), the American Amina Wadud (b. 1952) and the Pakistani Asma Barlas (b. 1950) – supplemented by in-depth interviews. In so doing, this study seeks (i) to fill a major gap in the literature by offering the first comprehensive survey and analysis of their readings and (ii) to challenge common portrayals of justice-based exegesis as being an obscure, fundamentalist scripturalism; as being rooted in North America; and as being focussed primarily, even exclusively, on gendered oppression. Indeed, the centring of the Qur’an in Islamic thought, I argue, is an increasingly mainstream practice – a global hermeneutic – as Muslims throughout the world seek answers in scripture to the pressing problems of the present. Furthermore, justice-based exegesis has been holistic, addressing (in addition to patriarchy) poverty and racism, communal violence and imperialism. Liberationist and women’s readings are significant, I conclude, for two reasons. Firstly, they shed new insights into the rise of ‘thematic commentary’ (tafsir mawdu‘i) in Qur’anic exegesis. Secondly, their expressly political character exposes the hegemony of Islamism over our understanding of ‘the political’ and ‘the radical’ in an Islamic context, thereby forcing us to redefine political and radical Islam.

[pt] A Teologia da Criança é o campo de pesquisa que tem como sujeito teológico o ser humano de pouca idade e denuncia o adultocentrismo como estrutura de opressão. O centro de toda construção teológica se estabelece ao redor e a partir da figura da criança. A pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar a relação entre a experiência de Deus e a valorização da infância, sinalizando a existência de uma ligação estreita entre um e outro. A experiência com o Mistério ganha novos contornos a partir da mística singular das crianças, bem como a infância adquire novas cores a partir da revelação desse Mistério em Jesus Cristo. Os pequeninos são a parábola que as Escrituras utilizam para falar sobre Deus, a vida cristã e os vulneráveis desse mundo, transcendendo assim a razão, a instituição e o consumo como lógica adultocentrica e propondo a mística, a liberdade e a generosidade como alternativa para se fazer como criança. Os adultos podem e devem reconhecer nas crianças um caminho para a experiência real de Deus. / [en] Theology of the child is the research field which has as theological subject the earlier-phases human beings and which denounced the adultcentrism as an oppression structure. The core of all theological construction is established around and from the figure of a child. The research has as its main objective to analyze the relation between experiencing God and the appreciation of childhood, pointing out the existence of a close relationship between them. The experience with Mystery assumes new perspectives through the peculiar, mystic worldview of the children. Also, childhood acquires new colors through the revelation of this Mystery in Jesus Christ. The little ones are the parable which are used by Scriptures to talk about God, Christian life and the vulnerable people of this world, transcending as such the reason, the institution and the consumption as adultcentric logic and proposing the mysticism, freedom and generosity as an alternative to become like children. Adults can and should recognize in children a way to really experiencing God.
