Liberation Theology and Communist Morality
This chapter examines the intersection of liberation theology and communist philosophy, focusing on the contributions of Enrique Dussel and the notion of 'South-South dialogue' in reshaping moral perspectives.

Additionally, the chapter critiques the rigidity of moral codes in past communist movements and calls for a reimagined moral approach that aligns with the evolving struggles for justice.
