Abstract

The themes of “diaspora” and “kenosis” were of course well-known in Christian thought long before the advent of postcolonial discourse. Indeed, diaspora has long been a feature of Jewish tradition, and only more recently has it become prominent in Christian theology, and still more recently, in explicitly postcolonial theology. But putting aside any attempts to describe a genealogy of ideas, this chapter provides a preliminary analysis of the affinities between the concepts of diaspora and kenosis, as viewed through a postcolonial lens.
