The issue of land in South Africa has been going on for so many years without a breakthrough, it prevented progress in the process of reconciliation and Justice for the Black people of South Africa. This research seeks to find ways in responding to the Land debate. This research also seeks to contribute to that debate by bringing attention to the question of Land debate from a theological premise and through black liberation theology. The thesis seeks to establish theological grounds for understanding the land question. The thesis further seeks to project from a black liberation point of view the way in which the dispossession of land in south Africa dehumanises Black people. Furthermore, the thesis discusses major point in the process of land redistribution in South Africa with the lenses of Black liberation theology, what land mean to the Black people of South African which then brings an understanding of the reason why they demand their land back. The study will begin by arguing about the land question from the doctrine of creation then proceed to reflect on theological anthropology and finally discuss the land question from the perspective of black liberation theology and the policies around land. ae2026 Dogmatics and Christian Ethics MA (Dogmatics and Christian Ethics) Unrestricted SDG-01: No poverty SDG-02: Zero hunger SDG-15: Life on land SDG-16: Peace, justice and strong institutions 2023-02-02T07:23:46Z 2023-02-02T07:23:46Z 2023-04 2022-10 Dissertation * A2023 https://repository.up.ac.za/handle/2263/89085 Disclaimer Letter en © 2021 University of Pretoria.
