ABSTRACTDisaster capitalism and shock doctrine have come to the fore in Ecuador after the 2016 earthquake and 2022 economic crisis and national strike. In opposition to the form of shock doctrine these two disasters highlight are theological anthropologies and praxis of religious alternatives to care and rebuilding. A disrupted research trip explores the competing visions of development, governance, and flourishing between the International Monetary Fund’s presence in Ecuador with shock doctrine and local economic collectives’ and the national solidarity movement’s liberative pastoral responses through Buen Vivir, an indigenous praxis of interdependence. The formation of democratic economic collectives and the validation of solidarity in large-scale national strikes demonstrate the power of pastoral theological responses holding to an expansive vision of Buen Vivir and theological anthropologies insisting on interdependent practices of care, justice, and liturgy to bring about fundamental shifts to our understanding of good living and subjectivity of all living things.KEYWORDS: Shock doctrineDisaster capitalismBuen VivirEcuadorLiberation theologyLeonidas Proaño Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Martinho, “Artisanal Fisheries.”2 Klein, The Shock Doctrine; Valdés, Pinochet’s Economists; and Fernández-Armesto, A Hemispheric History.3 Hiskey, Montalvo, and Orcés, “Democracy, Governance, and Emigration Intentions”; Hiskey and Orces, “Transition Shocks and Emigration Profiles”; Hiskey and Moseley, Life in the Political Machine.

【摘要】继2016年地震和2022年经济危机和全国罢工之后，灾害资本主义和休克主义在厄瓜多尔逐渐凸显。与休克主义的形式相反，这两种灾难强调的是神学人类学和宗教替代关怀和重建的实践。一次中断的研究之旅探讨了国际货币基金组织在厄瓜多尔的存在与休克主义和当地经济集体之间的发展，治理和繁荣的竞争愿景，以及通过相互依存的土著实践Buen Vivir的民族团结运动的解放田园反应。民主经济集体的形成和大规模全国罢工中团结一致的验证证明了牧灵神学反应的力量，他们坚持对幸福生活的广阔视野，神学人类学坚持相互依存的关怀，正义和礼拜仪式的实践，从而带来了我们对美好生活和所有生物主体性的理解的根本转变。关键词:休克主义灾难资本主义幸福生活主义解放神学列奥尼达Proaño披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。注释1 Martinho，“手工渔业”。2克莱因:《休克主义》;皮诺切特的经济学家瓦尔德·萨梅斯;和Fernández-Armesto，半球历史。3 Hiskey, Montalvo和orc<s:1>，“民主，治理和移民意图”;Hiskey and Orces，《转型冲击与移民概况》;希斯基和莫斯利，《政治机器中的生活》在过去的几年里，政治科学研究人员乔纳森·希斯基和戴安娜·奥克萨姆斯追踪了民主实践和参与对移民意愿的影响。希斯基和奥卡姆斯回顾了拉丁美洲不平衡的民主化进程、严重的内乱和“转型冲击”，这些都导致了前所未有的人口迁移。他们发现，“就在同一时期，该地区的国家正在向更民主的政治体制过渡，理论上在这个过程中对公民变得更加开放和容易接触，历史上有相当数量的人做出了艰难的决定，要离开自己的祖国很长一段时间。”“移民意向在很大程度上与一个人认为他们可以参与其产业、社会和政治生活的形成有关。希斯基和奥克萨梅斯发现，“个人认为(他们的)政治体系在民主质量和治理能力方面存在缺陷的程度，将影响他们在不久的将来考虑离开(他们的)祖国的意愿。”摘自《民主、治理和移民意图》，90-91.4弗里德曼:《资本主义与自由》，4-8,14-17,195-200;罗杰斯-沃恩，《新自由主义时代对灵魂的关怀》，16-18.5;弗里德曼，《资本主义与自由》，4.6;弗里德曼，《资本主义与自由》，1957;参见:弗里德曼，《企业的社会责任》。8罗杰斯-沃恩，《新自由主义时代对灵魂的关怀》，17.9史密斯，《关系自我》。参见:Pamela D.

ABSTRACTThis article addresses how critical race theory and methodology can inform narrative approaches to qualitative research in pastoral care and theology. While narrative theories in hermeneutics, psychology, and psychotherapy have been widely used in the field of pastoral theology, critical race theory has been rarely engaged, specifically in narrative approaches to pastoral care. Counterstorytelling is one of the primary theoretical and analytical frameworks that has been widely used in critical race methodology in law, education, and healthcare research. It challenges majoritarian stories that have systemically silenced the voices of people of color by creating new life-giving counterstories that honor the authentic lived experience of people of color. By reflecting on my own experience of conducting qualitative research with undocumented young adults, I examine how counterstorytelling can be used as a theoretical and methodological tool to construct justice-oriented, prophetic, and liberative functions of narrative approaches to pastoral care and theology.KEYWORDS: Qualitative researchnarrativecritical race theorycounterstorytellingundocumentedAsian American Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Moschella, “Practice Matters,” 20–21.

In 1950 practical theology, as an academic discipline encompassing the disciplines of pastoral care, Christian education, homiletics, liturgics, and congregational studies, began to be retrieved from its 19th century roots with Schleiermacher and others. “Professors [Ross] Snyder and [Seward] Hiltner organized the Association of Professors in the Practical Fields in 1950. Snyder was elected the first President, and the Association had a very productive life for more than 20 years. The [U.S.] Association of Practical Theology and the International Academy of Practical Theology have now succeeded it” (Moore, 2012). I attended my first meeting with this group in Denver in 1980 and my first international meeting in The Netherlands in 1982. A significant omission in this volume is that I did not find the names of Ross Snyder and Allen Moore, my mentor in practical theology. As pioneers in practical theology, they deserve our gratitude.

There are times when an event compels those of us who identify as pastoral theologians to reflect upon and to write about our perspectives. Such an event occurred 150 miles from where I teach, write, think and live. Yesterday morning on October 12, 1998 a young college student, 21 years of age, succumbed to the beating he received at the hands of two other young men. The apparent reason for the brutal attack was that Matthew Shepard's gay sexual orientation offended the young men. This tragedy not only affects Shepard's family and friends, but its impact is felt by all of us who value love and life more than hate and violence. The trauma reflects the dangers many experience-implicitly and explicitly-as we realize that there are those who would persecute us physically, verbally, spiritually, and emotionally, because of our love for human beings of the same gender. Shepard's beating and death challenges my complicity and my reluctance to write prematurely about my research in the area of forgiveness. The silence of my careful thought has changed to an urgent pastoral theological response, even if it is only in its initial stages of conceptual maturity. It is impossible to remain intellectually aloof as I hear the grief of Shepard's family and friends, as I listen to the fear of my gay clients and students, or as I attend to the pain in my own soul. To abide in silence when I read hate material on the web, or to not respond when church leaders persecute lesbians and gays, their loved ones, and their families, is an abomination. This article begins with the assumption that Shepard's death is a public trauma that invites communities of faith into an examination of forgiveness and its centrality in the Judeo-Christian tradition. For those who regard the loss of life as an injustice perpetrated not only against Shepard, but against all who support lesbians, gay men, bisexuals or transgendered persons, the questions become: What does forgiveness mean in response to such an injustice? What are the communal
