Este artigo debate com Clodovis Boff as suas afirmações de que a Teologia da Libertação acabou por inverter a relação entre Deus e o pobre, colocando o pobre no lugar de Cristo. Em réplica, aqui sustentamos que o pobre não é apenas uma decorrência cristológica, mas antes um “lugar teológico” privilegiado para compreender Cristo e Deus do ponto de vista da teologia cristã, inclusive seu teste de veracidade. O artigo debate também a metodologia de Clodovis, que segue uma lógica linear, de sabor escolástico, e não considera suficientemente a complexidade do círculo hermenêutico e a tradição bíblica que obriga a incorporar o paradoxo e o escândalo da quenose como categoria bíblica. Por fim, a categoria de quenose não pode se ater a uma memória textual, mas entra em círculo hermenêutico com a quenose atual dos pobres e de todos os que estão em situação de vulnerabilidade, aos quais é dado o Reino de Deus.Abstract: This article engages in a debate with Clodovis Boff with regard to his statements that the Theology of Liberation, by replacing Christ with the poor, ended by inverting the relationship between God and the poor. In refutation of this, we affirm here that the poor are not just a christological consequence but more a privileged “theological place” to understand Christ and God from the point of view of christian theology, and even to test their veracity. The article also disputes Clodovis’ methodology which, in our view, follows a linear logic of a somewhat scholastic flavour, and does not take into sufficient consideration the complexity of the hermeneutic circle and the biblical tradition that forces us to incorporate the paradox and the scandal of the kenosis as a biblical category. Finally the category of kenosis cannot be limited to a textual memory; it enters into a hermeneutic circle with the present kenosis of the poor and of all those who are still in a situation of vulnerability and to whom the Kingdom of God is given.

Although Political Theology examined mainly the political dimension of the relationship between God-Father and God-Son, it is paramount to consider the political performance of the Holy Spirit in the Economy of Redemption. The Holy Spirit has been characterized as the binding cause and the principle of relationality both referring to God’s inner life and to God’s relationship with His creatures. As the personalization of relationality, the Holy Spirit performs a unique task: to bring together what is apart by means of organisation. This power of the Spirit to turn a plurality into a unity is manifested in the Latin translation of oikonomía as disposition, that is, giving a special order to the multiple elements within a certain totality. Within this activity of the Spirit, Theodicy can be regarded as the way to depict God’s arrangement of the world and of history, bringing everything together towards the eschatological Kingdom of God. The paper aims at showing this fundamental activity of the Holy Spirit in Christian Theology, and intends to pose the question on how to think on a theology beyond theodicy, that is, how to think on a Trinitarian God beyond the categories of sovereignty and totalization.

A TdL se contituiu, ao longo de sua história, como uma teologia sistemática que se insere no conjunto das outras teologias, possui um método de relação com outras ciências, desenvolve o genitivo dos pobres e assume um caráter universal, sedimentado a partir do lugar dos enfraquecidos da história. Seu desenvolvimento está marcado pelas influências das teologias européias, das primeiras obras da própria TdL e da abertura eclesial ao mundo, proporcionada pelo Vaticano II. Embora consolidada, esta teologia foi questionada pelo magistério eclesiástico devido à utilização do marxismo no interior de seu complexo teórico. Mas, sua consistência é a de ser uma teologia desenvolvida em função da irrupção do Reino de Deus na história, a partir da vida dos pobres deste mundo.Abstract: The Theology of Liberation (TL), as its history has unfolded, has made itself into a systematic Theology which places itself in the assemblage of other Theologies, having a method of relation to other Sciences, developing the genitive of the poor and assuming a universal character rooted in the place ofthe weak of history. Its development is marked by the influences of European Theologies, by the first works of TL itself and the ecclesial opening up to the world, given through Vatican II. Though Consolidated, th is Theology was questioned by the ecclesiastical magisterium due to its use of Marxism at the core of its theoretical complex. But its consistency is in its being a Theology developed in function of the outburst of the Kingdom of God in history, starting offfrom the life of the poor ofthis world.

Partindo do pressuposto de que toda teologia é social e de que a sociedade é uma realidade complexa e conflitiva, o artigo se confronta com a problemática do lugar social que a teologia cristã deve ocupar: seu a partir de onde e seu para quem. Começa explicitando em que sentido falamos de lugar social (espaço físico-geográfico, posição ou situação social, ponto de vista intelectivo) para se confrontar, em seguida, com a problemática do lugar social da teologia e explicitar em que sentido o mundo dos pobres e oprimidos constitui o lugar fundamental da teologia cristã: lugar privilegiado de acesso real ao reinado de Deus (seu assxmto ou "objeto); orientação fundamental do fazer teológico (seu para quem); lugar mais adequado de historicização e verificação da teoria teológica (sua verdade); princípio e critério de desideologização da teologia (sua prova de fogo). ABSTRACT: Assuming that ali theology is social and that society is a complex and conflicting reality, the article confronts the problem of social place that Christian theology should occupy: from where and to whom. The article begins by explaining in what sense we speak of social place (physical-geographical space, social position or situation, intellectual point of view). Next, this point is confronted with the problematic of the social place of Theology and clarify in what sense the world of poor and downtrodden constitutes the fimdamental place of Christian theology: a privileged place of real access to the Kingdom of God (its issue or "object "); fundamental orientation of doing theological (for whom); the most appropriate place of Historicizing and verification of theological theory (its truth); principie and criteríon of "de-ideologization" of theology (its test of fire).

Medellín fue el momento fundante de la espiritualidad y la teología de la liberación, y su elemento más característico: la opción por los pobres. Los 50 años transcurridos han sido de una espiritualidad muy intensa, por el surgimiento de una nueva eclesialidad, la asunción de la conflictividad inherente al seguimiento de Jesús, una mística martirial... El Autor subraya el carácter espiritual de esta historia, recordando momentos memorables, como la visión sociológico-utópica de Gottwald, el final de la “arqueologia bíblica” clásica, la superación del carácter provinciano de la teología cristiana de la liberación, la apertura al horizonte de la ecologia profunda... y el encuentro reciente con los últimos nuevos paradigmas, que muestran que esta aventura espiritual tiene todavía mucho quehacer por delante.Abstract: Medellín was the founding moment of liberation spirituality and theology, and its most characteristic element: the option for the poor. These 50 years have been of a very intense spirituality, because of the emergence of a new ecclesiality, the assumption of the inherent conflictivity of the following of Jesus, the martyrial mystic... The author emphasizes the spiritual character of this journey, recalling memorable moments, like the sociological-utopian vision of Gottwald, the end of classical “biblical archeology”, the overcoming of the parochial character of the ‘Christian’ theology of liberation, the opening to the horizon of deep ecology ... and the recent encounter with the last new paradigms, which show that this spiritual adventure still has much to do ahead.Keywords: Medellín; Spirituality of liberation; Theology of liberation; Option for the poor; Paradigms.

Salvation and welfare in the present time, covenant and mission In the theological debate on salvation and welfare an important question that must be asked is the one concerning the relevance of the present time and world. The Marxist view presents the radical revolution as solution. The neo-Marxist view is that the revolution should continue. The theology of hope regards future freedom as way of salvation. The theology of liberation regards the exodus of the poor as salvation. The theology of reconstruction looks forward to a future where justice and human rights will be stressed. Salvation and welfare in the present time should, however, be related to the covenant of God. This is also very important for the way in which salvation must be seen from a missiological point of view.

The research aims to reconstruct the expressive contribution of the philosophy of otherness to (re) thinking the status of Christian theology in Latin American lands, as well as the disenchantment of that kind of philosophy. First, it is about evoking the contribution of the wisdom of Love to think Christian theology otherwise in light of a broader background that re-establish the relationship between Judaism and Christianity. Secondly, we intend to explain the impact of the Levinasian approach on the problem of God and its developments in our continent from a theological point of view. Without denying that theology has a discursive character, it is a matter of retaking what the Lithuanian-Frenchman philosopher evokes about the service to the love of the wisdom of love. And by way of conclusion, it is intended to propose some brief notes about the urgency of a poststructuralist turn of Latin American theology in function of the centrality of ethics and their respective languages in the manner of a Canticle of the Canticles.

This article aims to explore the relationship between the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri) and the Ministry of Villages (Kemendes) from theconstitutional law and state administrative law point of view.The second concerns of this research is the disharmony and problem between the two ministries.From the constitutional law point of view, it turns out that what the Ministry of Home Affairs is doing, is closer to the object of its discussion. The method used in this research is normative legal research bycomparingthe constitutional law and state administrative law to obtain clarity regarding the Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministry of Village. The result shows that the Ministry of Village approached the science of state administrative law, namely to revive or give spirits to the village. Disharmonization began to exist since the inception of the Ministry of Village. The root of disharmony itself was the improper application of constitutional foundations in the formation of the Village Law. It would be better if the government reassess the constitutional foundation for the village.

This text is an attempt to see sport in different ways in the light of ancient philosophical themes. Philosophy of sports gets less attention than other areas of the discipline that examine the other major components of contemporary society: philosophy of religion, political philosophy, aesthetics, and philosophy of science. Talking about sports is often cheap, but it does not have to be that way. One of the reasons for this is insufficiently paid attention to the relation between sport and philosophy in Greek. That is it's important to talk about sports, just as important as we are talking about religion, politics, art and science. The argument of the present text is that we can try to get a handle philosophically on sports by examining it in light of several key idea from ancient Greek philosophy. The ancient Greeks, tended to be hylomorphists who gloried in both physical and mental achievement. Тhe key concepts from Greek philosophy that will provide the support to the present text are the following: arete, sophrosyne, dynamis and kalokagathia. These ideals never were parts of a realized utopia in the ancient world, but rather provided a horizon of meaning. We will claim that these ideals still provide worthy standards that can facilitate in us a better understanding of what sports is and what it could be. How can a constructive dialogue be developed which would discuss differences in understanding of sport in Ancient Greece and today? In this paper, the authors will try to answer this question from a historical and philosophical point of view. The paper is divided into three sections. The first section of the paper presents two principally different forms or models of focus in sport competitions – focus on physical excellence or focus on game. The dialectic discourse regarding these two approaches to physical activity is even more interesting due to the fact that these two models take precedence over one another depending on context. In the second section of the paper, the focus shifts to theendemic phenomenon of the Ancient Greek Olympic Games, where the topic is discussed from the perspective of philosophy with frequent historical reflections on the necessary specifics, which observeman as a physical-psychological-social-spiritual being. In the third section of this paper, the authors choose to use the thoughts and sayings of the great philosopher Plato to indicate how much this philosopher wasactually interested in the relationship between soul and body, mostly through physical exercise and sport, because it seems that philosophers who came after him have not seriously dealt with this topic in Plato’s way, although they could.
