  • Preferential Option for the Poor Reconsidered Lamberty, Kim 2018 Praxis: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Faith and Justice , Vol. 1 , Issue 1 , S. 36 ff. ( Zeitschrift ) Englisch 2576-2966 10.5840/praxis2018114 Abstract

    This article contends that churches in the United States have in large measure inter­preted the principle of preferential option for the poor in a way that bestows more benefits on the wealthy than on the poor. In support of that contention, the author examines the original meaning of the option for the poor principle, which has its roots in the reflections of theologians working in poverty-stricken contexts. She briefly surveys the work of Gustavo Gutierrez and Jon Sobrino—two theologians who have led Church thinking on poverty—and then suggests a revised praxis of preferential option for the poor for Catholics in the United States.
