Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
The theological-pastoral methodology, which configured not only the texts but the work dynamics of Medellín, had important developments and debates in the 1960s. This contribution is concentrated, particularly, in a radical critique of the Conference made by Eduardo Briancesco. First, its presents the objections of the Argentine theologian, who affirms that there is an undue exaltation of the empirical aspect in Medellín. Second, the article makes an assessment of the author's position, paying attention, in particular, to some important aspects of the state of the question in the methodological debate at that time. In this way, the criticism is better contextualized and some achievements and limitations of the Medellín works are more adequately understood from the point of view of the theological methodology.
