And how did it respond to state terrorism during the Dirty War? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUnderstanding the movement to be dynamic and highly diverse, this book reveals that ecclesial and political conflicts, especially over Peronism and celibacy, were at the heart of the construction of a liberationist Christian identity, which simultaneously internalised deep tensions over its relationship to the Catholic Church. It first situates the rise of a revolutionary Christian impulse in Argentina within changes in society, in Catholicism and Protestantism and in Marxism in the 1930s, before analysing how the phenomenon coalesced in the late sixties into a coherent social movement. Finally, the book examines the responses of liberationist Christians to the intense period of repression under the presidency of Isabel Per and the rule of the military junta between 1974 and 1983. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy exploring these distinct responses and uncovering the heterogeneity of liberationist Christianity, the book offers a fresh analysis of a movement that occupies a major role in the popular memory of the period of state terror, and provides a corrective to narratives that depict the movement as monolithic or as a passive victim of the dictatorship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pablo Bradbury\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1855663635\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781855663633\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tamesis Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/14\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Pablo Bradbury","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44072529887487,"sku":"9781855663633","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9d3d0ae0-b82e-4575-9051-5749f97f6651.jpg?v=1685442521","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/liberationist-christianity-in-argentina-1930-1983-pablo-bradbury-9781855663633","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
