This is the next volume of the Building Bridges Seminar. As is always the case, Power--Divine and Human: Christian and Muslim Perspectives comprises pairs of essays by Christians and Muslims which introduce texts for dialogical study, plus the actual text-excerpts themselves. This new book goes far beyond mere reporting on a dialogical seminar; rather, it provides guidance and materials for constructing a similar dialogical experience on a particular topic. As a resource for comparative theology, Power--Divine and Human is unique in that it takes up a topic not usually explored in depth in Christian-Muslim conversations. It is written by scholars for scholars. However, in tone and structure it is suitable for the non-specialist as well. Students (undergraduate and graduate), religious leaders, and motivated non-specialists will find it readable and useful. While it falls solidly in the domain of comparative theology, it can also be used in courses on dialogical reading of scripture, interreligious relations, and political philosophy.

Diversos autores han llamado la atención sobre la influencia del cristianismo liberacionista en los acontecimientos más importantes de las últimas décadas en América Latina. La investigación de la que resulta el presente trabajo, enmarcada teórica y metodológicamente en el campo de la historia reciente, tiene por objetivo comprender las relaciones entre catolicismo liberacionista y política en el escenario de la efervescencia social de los años sesenta y setenta en la Argentina. El libro historiza y analiza ese proceso situándose en la ciudad de Bahía Blanca en el período 1968-1975 y focalizando en las trayectorias de los integrantes de la Juventud Universitaria Católica (JUC), la Juventud Estudiantil Católica (JEC) y la Juventud Obrera Católica (JOC).

During a lifetime of active involvement in American political life, Reinhold Niebuhr did much good and a certain amount of mischief. Both the good and the mischief are traceable to the same source: his faith. For too long, Niebuhr has been misrepresented by the political theorists and the historians as a link in the pragmatic tradition. It is time we began to do Niebuhr the justice of taking him at his own evaluation - as a dogmatic Christian. The meaning of his own life, he believed, was in the keeping of God. And so, he believed, was the meaning of his nation's history. He believed that history was radically open to all possibilities of both good and evil until its end—and he could thus nonchalantly apply to America's collective destiny the dictum of St. Paul that he applied to his own: that, "whether we live, we live unto the Lord, and whether we die, we die unto the Lord; whether we live therefore or die we are the Lord's."
