Description
Summary:How should theology respond to sexual abuse of migrant women? An appropriate theological and ethical response must account for the role of both personal actions and social structures in perpetuating these abuses. Beginning with an exploration of Catholic feminist appropriation of social Trinitarian thinking as the basis for the ethical formulation on justice and social solidarity, this essay engages theological concerns about the risk of subordinating particular persons within communities with special attention to accounts of surrogate suffering. Reasserting emphases on analogy and self-gift in Trinitarian doctrine, the essay offers practical responses to the sexual abuse of migrant women.
