Balkan Contextual Theology is a rich book, as polyphonic as is the Balkans that divides and unites. It is about liberated religions and nations after the collapse of Yugoslavia. This book is the first contextual and politically critical theology for the Balkans. Its theology is a model for other difficult regions. - Jurgen Moltmann, University in Tubingen, Germany Balkan Contextual Theology introduces and explores the culturally rich religious traditions of the Western Balkans. A very significant contribution to Christian political theology. I highly recommend it. - Elisabeth Schussler Fiorenza, Harvard University, USA Scholars of religion usually talk about the Balkans. This book lifts up the unique questions and challenges posed to theology from within the Balkans, as well as the particular cultural, historical, and intellectual resources for enriching theological thinking. With contributions from scholars across disciplines, this book offers a much needed and valuable contribution to contextual theology. - Aristotle Papanikolaou, Fordham University, USA
