Doing Theology in the New Normal - by Jione Havea (Paperback)

This book is a groundbreaking collection of essays that explore how four ancient responses to crises - assure, protest, trick, amend - can be applied in the modern era, particularly during a global pandemic.

With contributions from scholars and experts around the world, this book offers a fresh perspective on how these time-tested strategies can help us navigate the challenges of the "new normal." The authors argue that simply adapting to the new reality is not enough; we must also confront the deeper issues of coloniality, compartmentalization, and power asymmetries that have been exposed by the pandemic.

By examining these issues through the lens of these ancient responses, this book provides a powerful toolkit for anyone seeking to build a more just and equitable society in the aftermath of the pandemic.
