This diversity of contexts and scholarly approaches underscore the notion of '\u003ci\u003eglobality\u003c\/i\u003e' which is at the heart of  '\u003ci\u003esubverting Empire\u003c\/i\u003e';  explored through the intersecting themes of environmental justice, social and economic justice, addressing poverty, migration challenges and dealing with all forms of discrimination such as gender and racism. Central to the approach of this book is the notion that '\u003ci\u003esubverting Empire\u003c\/i\u003e' requires an urgent and transformational shift from traditional approaches to creative and missional approaches grounded on human dignity and life affirming values as opposed to the death dealing effects of the current global architecture which thrives on exploitation of the poor and marginalized communities.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBuhle Mpofu \u003c\/b\u003eis Senior Lecturer with the Department of Practical Theology and Mission Studies at the Faculty of Theology and Region, University of Pretoria, in South Africa.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e29 April 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eT\u0026amp;T Clark\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781666975376\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e256\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57327264661644,"sku":"9781666975376","price":35.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_13a553e8-c4de-40aa-93b3-47dcbfdb96f4.jpg?v=1789055708","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781666975376","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
