In South America the church has proved itself as a vehicle of liberation of the poor. In what ways could this inform the church in the current economic recession?

And how far should the poor be the focus of our theology? Chaired by Sarah Snyder, with Margaret Hebblethwaite and Paolo Ueti.
Panel: The world is the poor’s and everything in it?
