Liberation theology is one of the most significant movements springing from contemporary Latin America.
What began among a few Latin theologians has grown into a recognized movement with influence all over the world.
From the earliest expressions of the liberation theme by missionary Richard Schaull in 1955, the liberation motif
appeared with increasing frequency in a number of progressive Roman Catholic councils and ecumenical
conferences in the 1960s. It gained widespread recognition at the second Latin American Episcopal Council (CELAM
II) in Medelln, Colombia in 1968.
