Theopolitics
The use of Christian theology to critique national, civic, and political structures. While "theopolitics," is kindred to the theological reflections of "Liberation Theology" in its critique of power, theopolitics differs primarily in the context from which it is written. While liberation theology comes out of the context of communities engaged in struggle against oppression and often from the third-world, theopolitics is the result the reflections, usually, of white men who critically reflect on political implications of a Jesus centered life. While we prefer liberation theology, we also find great value in theopolitics and its ability to shape our understanding of gospel truth.
