The idea of this book was conceived during the American Academy of Religion (AAR)/Luce Summer Seminar in Theologies of Religious Pluralism and Comparative Theology Cohort II at the Georgia Tech Conference Center in Atlanta, Georgia in 2010. The seminar was attended by a group of scholars who discussed and explored the emerging fields of theologies of religious pluralism and comparative theology. When the group met again a year later for part II of the seminar at the Catholic Theological Union in Chicago, further discussion of the topic ensued and a handful of the seminar fellows expressed interest in producing a volume on interreligious theology of liberation. The proposal of the book finally came to fruition during the AAR/Luce Summer Writing Workshop at Emory University in 2016. We would like to express our appreciation and gratitude to the seminars’ instructors Francis X. Clooney, S. Mark Heim, Anantanand Rambachan, John Makransky, John J. Thatamanil, Peter Ochs, Marcia Hermansen, and Jeannine Hill Fletcher. Their guidance and mentorship were instrumental to the launching and success of this proj
