155 Liberation: A Dual-Edged Sword Leonard Lovett The Scope of the Liberation Challenge Liberation is one of those perennial concerns that creates a great deal of pain when debated in public, partly because we have bad ' memories and associations with certain individuals or groups with vested interests. The landscape is amply strewn with the tattered banners of revolutionaries who have tried to correlate properly the relation of their particular cause to some ideological claim, in hopes of rendering it legitimate, and often this is done in the name of God. The remarks in this article represent less conclusions reached, than difficulties and complexities encountered in discussing such a concern as liberation. The problem of the subject of liberation is further heightened by the fact that there are so many definitions and kinds of liberation. Hence, this treatment is more like that of a collage than of a mosaic; yet it somehow "hangs together" even though all the pieces do not always fit. It may well be, then, that it is . precisely the inner dissonance and tensions rooted in the quest for liberation as a whole, which allows it to speak more authoritatively to us. Hegel's dictum
