What Does Theology Do, Actually?: Observing Theology and the Transcultural

By Matthew Ryan Robinson

"What Does Theology Do, Actually? Observing Theology and the Transcultural" is to be the first in a series of 5 books, each presented under the same question - "What Does Theology Do, Actually?", with vols. 2-5 focusing on one of the theological subdisciplines. This first volume proceeds from the observation of a need for a highly inflected "trans-cultural", and not simply "inter-cultural", set of perspectives in theological work and training. The revolution brought about across the humanities disciplines through globalization and the recognition of "multiple modernities" has introduced a diversity of overlapping cultural content and multiple cultural and religious belongings not only into academic work in the humanities and social sciences, but into the Christian churches as well.
