A possibilidade de uma hermenêutica cristã decolonial

Abstract

The modernity has a violent face that, many times, leans on Christianity to tell the history of the winners, in which the European, white, heterosexual and Christian men subjugates any other expression of life that is not in this colonizing pattern. In view of this, this work aims to reflect over the possibility of Christianity and hermeneutics that is decolonial and, therefore, a contextual and liberating theology, critical of itself, able to tell the history by giving voice to the oppressed and subjugated. In search of this other way of theological doing, the proposal here is to analyze whether the hermeneutic key “law and gospel” contributes, in any way, to think about this kind of theological thinking, committed to a liberating praxis.
