    Alienation: The Human Dilemma
    (1977) Andrews, Richard; Mortimer, Robert A.
    The concept of alienation is at the heart of many critiques of western industrial society. But there are many different conceptions of alienation. This essay attempts to draw upon various writers in order to propose a conception that will clarify a specific critique of society. The social critics that are the primary focus of this essay are Erich Fromm (The Sane Society, 1955), Herbert Marcuse (One-Dimensional Man, 1964, Eros and Civilization, 1955, and Reason and Revolution, 1941), and Karl Marx (Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844). I will integrate their conceptions of alienation with the conception of man proposed by Abraham Maslow in Motivation and Personality.

    The Liberation Theology of Gustavo Gutierrez: A Dialectic Reconciliation of Hegel and Marx
    (2011) Levitan, Elizabeth; Hucks, Tracey E., 1965-
    In A Theology of Liberation, Gustavo Gutierrez defines theology as a reflection on praxis. In this reflection, he creates an ontological system that unites the temporal and eternal world. In this formulation, Gutierrez, without explicitly acknowledging the process in which he is engaged, dialectically reconciles the theories of Hegel and Marx transforming their theories into a new theological system that could be used as an epistemological basis for a Christian understanding of the current state of the world. Grounding his theory in scripture, Gutierrez uses theological concepts such as the Trinity, hope and love to reconcile the divergent theories of Hegel and Marx and place liberation theology as a next step in the process of the development of human thought. In this way Gutierrez re-orients the concept of theology, as an adaptable means of interpreting the world and places it squarely within the dialectical processes of the development of human thought.
