Abstract (type = abstract)
In this paper, I will explore the importance of the rise of ideologies like Liberation Theology which brought attention to the injustices suffered by the poor and their need for liberation. I will discuss how they inspired other movements of liberation around the world, such as Latin American Feminist Liberation Theology, a feminist theology dedicated to the liberation of women in the Caribbean, Central, South and South America. Through scholarly research, I will analyze the complexity of women’s oppression in the continent as the combination of the patriarchal ideology imposed by the Catholic Church, machismo, and marianismo, a unique phenomenon developed in the continent since the conquest. My research will also demonstrate how the complexity of women’s situation in Latin America demands the implementation of different methodologies and ideologies in order to succeed: the implementation of Base Ecclesial Communities or CEBs which allow women to become active participants in their communities. The need of teaching a new image of Mary supported by a new interpretation of the Bible will allow Mary to become a positive model for women. It will help them escape the negative aspects of marianismo which have made them active participants in their own oppression throughout the centuries. Finally, the implementation of those methodologies and ideologies combined with the principles of Latin American Feminist Liberation Theology under the guidance of Latin American Feminist theologians may constitute the best answer to make the liberation of women from oppression in Latin American’ societies a reality.
