Theologies, no matter their designations, are public measures they disclose as well as gauge the publics (near and far) on which they stand, sit, lie, or fall. Because publics shift and mingle, theologies require reimagining and relocating, and embracing fresh insights and energies. The insights and energies embraced in this work are in three clusters: spaces, bodies, technologies. The spotlighted spaces are in Africa, Asia, Black America, Caribbean, and Pasifika beyond the eyes of mainline theologies; the privileged bodies have survived, with scars from, empire and missionary positionings; and the welcomed technologies include Dalit, indigenous, art, poetry, cyborg, and the novel. This collection is troubling in several ways: first, reimagining and relocating are troubling acts upon their subject matter here, public theologies. On that note, what theology is not public? Second, this work takes theologies in general, and not just the theologies that carry the public designation, to be public theologies. Third, this work takes theologies (in general) to be inherently troubling. In other words, theologies that are not troubling are not public enough.
