What is Decolonial Love : Salvation in Colonial Modernity about?

Review Decolonial Love pushes forward the crucially important engagement of Christian theology with decolonial thought. Clear and thoughtful, synthetic and constructive, attentive to scholarly convention as well as to marginalized voices, this book introduces theologians to state-of-the-art theory from the Global South. It also shows how secular theorists of coloniality, liberation theologians, and the inimitable James Baldwin are all part of a shared conversation, interrogating idolatry and striving for revolutionary salvation. ---Vincent W. Lloyd, Villanova University In a world where we are told that competition is the way to go, that success is the goal, that more is better and that salvation depends on the market, love has become an institutional commodity. Decolonial Love invites us to de-link from these orthodoxies of Western modernity and to re-link with communal horizons of healing colonial wounds and with the liberating potential of decolonial/theological salvation. ---Walter Mignolo, co-author with Catherine Walsh of On Decoloniality: Concepts, Analytics, Praxis Product Description Bringing together theologies of liberation and decolonial thought, Decolonial Love
