faculty assistant

Susan Abraham, who joined the faculty in 2007, holds an MA in theology from Catholic Theological Union in Chicago and an MA in English from the University of Mumbai, India. Her dissertation, titled "Karl Rahner's Theology of Freedom in a Postcolonial Context," which she wrote under the guidance of Francis Schüssler Fiorenza at Harvard Divinity School, was published as Identity, Ethics, and Nonviolence in Postcolonial Theory: A Rahnerian Theological Assessment (Palgrave Macmillan, 2007). Her current book project is a co-edited anthology of Catholic feminist reflections on motherhood and globalization, under the auspices of the Constructive Theology Workshop. She is also working on her next book, which presents a feminist analysis of cross-cultural religious beliefs and practices. These research interests present a theoretical and critical framework for practical theological strategies addressing religious and multicultural identity claims, ethics, and global relations in postcolonial contexts.
