Abstract
Excerpt from Editorial: Central to the investigation of the conditions in the Global South are questions surrounding the transformation of the social, national, and transnational order of things. The attention to transformation suggests a desire to know the practices that drive change and their respective values in breaking the restrictions of routinized affairs that order and reorder community, state, and broader human interactions. The desire to know how transformation unfolds and what possible practices can unravel the ordering of things, ultimately implicates the power, socio-cultural, and economic structures operating in these variable realms of interactions. These structural relations are intimately enmeshed with the history of colonialism and postcolonial experience in the Global South. Articles covered by this issue reflect part of the experiences behind these relations. A common thread of concern running across these articles are questions surrounding the emancipatory values of transformative practices in three areas of inquiry. Highlighting these concerns are the discussions on worldviews arising in the interface of economics and theology, how hegemonic gender relations and sexual orientations can possibly be disrupted, and what must the state and society account for in dealing with the difficult issue of drug abuse, violence, and the COVID-19 triggered lockdowns.
