Keywords: Contexts; Option for the Poor; Paradigm of Evangelization; Solidarity

Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the contexts of contemporary theology as new loci theologici, which have become not only the objectabstr but also the starting point for theological reflection. The article first relates the contexts and the text, and then makes mentions of the Latin American context and the "option for the poor". It demonstrates how this "option for the poor" is received in the European context – the paradigm of evangelization by the theologians K. Bopp, N. Mette and S. Knobloch – and by Pope Francis. Additionally, the article discusses globalization as the context of our time and the related question of "Who is my neighbor?" In conclusion, the article discusses the basic dimensions of Christian and religious fulfillment.
