Descrizione
Riepilogo:Political theology has much to contribute toward unraveling the threads that uphold carcerality. As a negative project, political theology offers us grounding for critique. As a positive program, it can help us to stitch together old fragments into new patterns that might nudge us towards an abolitionist horizon. As a mode, political theology is theoretical and practical, historical and futuring. It is multifaceted and capacious. Through this journal issue, we hope to inspire continued pursuit of questions: How might theological discourses and religious practices help to prefigure a world without prisons? How can political theology help dream another world into being? How can political theology against human caging embody a praxis that is legible within the academy but is in full solidarity with those who are in the cages? How might these words on a page be given life in and beyond the practices of writing, teaching, and learning?
