The option for the poor, or the preferential option for the poor, is a principle of Catholic social teaching, explicitly articulated in the latter half of the 20th century.[1] The concept was first articulated within Latin American liberation theology, and was championed by many Latin American Christian democratic parties at the time.[2] It is also a theological emphasis in Methodism.
