Description
Summary:English Abstract:The recognition of the First Nations' right of political self-determination and other basic rights constitutes one of Canada' s major challenges in the years to come. This challenge also presents itself as a new locus theologicus in view of a contextualized reflection on salvation and its social implications in Native American communities. In Part One, Pee/man deals with the historical, geographical and cultural boundaries of the aboriginal rights question, while focusing on its contemporary political ,juridical and social implications. In Part Two, he examines its theological implications in light of the development of an authentically Amerindian liberation theology, while confronting the Christian churches with their historical and contemporary responsibilities vis-a•vis Canada's First Nations.
