EDITORIAL: THEOLOGY, POLITICS AND SOCIAL LIFE

Abstract

The thread passing through the trio of theology, politics, and social life is a dynamic, sometimes tense, and deeply impactful nexus that shapes how societies view justice, order, and morality. Theology and socio-political life are deeply intertwined, with theology providing the foundational beliefs that shape social, political, and economic structures, while social life provides the context in which faith is practised and applied. This brief piece demonstrates the connection and challenges involved. In spite of these challenges, it sees the symbiosis as inevitable.
