Abstract
Pastoral theology has as its own and current challenge the articulation of theological reflection with pastoral action and with epochal processes. Although in Latin America progress has been made in this perspective, methodological challenges still remain in this disciplinary field. For this reason, within the framework of the synodal reconfiguration of the Church in general and of theology in particular, the article bases reception on the see-judge-act method of the approach proposed by Colombian researcher Orlando Fals Borda, Participatory Action-Research (PAR), accounting for some background receptions. The see-judge-act method, thus, recovers the unity between the subject of reflection and the subject of action, it shortens the distances between reflection and pastoral action, and between these with academic theological reflection. Furthermore, it is configured as a participatory method in which community dialogue between various ecclesial subjects, including academic theologians, is highlighted.
