Abstract
SANTAMARIA-RODRIGUEZ, Juan Esteban. Victimhood as a “Locus Theologicus” a Theological Appropriation from the perspective of Ignacio Ellacuria. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2017, vol.67, n.184, pp.481-508. ISSN 0120-3649. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.tx67-184.vltati.
This article appropriates victimhood as a “political place” in the context of the Colombian armed con- flict; at the same time, it highlights the importance of this human condition as a Locus Theologicus from the perspective of Ignacio Ellacuría. The relevance of victimhood is understood from the intellective and sentient dynamism as a human structure of apprehension, appro- priation and transformation of reality by the victims; it is also understood from the meaning of the Locus Theologi cus in its three dimensions (the place of the historical presence of the Father; the mediation for the experience of faith from the historical following of Jesus; and the possibility of the “theological doing” as theological praxis) and the theologal implication that it brings to the Christian faith and to the ecclesial praxis.
Keywords : Victimhood; Political place; Locus Theologicus; Ignacio Ellacuría.
