In an era which many now recognise as 'post-secular', the role that
religions play in shaping gender identities and relationships has
been awarded a renewed status in the study of societies and social
change. In both the Global South and the Global North, in the 21st
century, religiosity is of continuing significance, not only in
people's private lives and in the family, but also in the public
sphere and with respect to political and legal systems. The
Routledge Handbook of Religion, Gender and Society is an
outstanding reference source to these key topics, problems and
debates in this exciting subject area. Comprising over 40 chapters
by a team of international contributors, the Handbook is divided
into 3 parts: * Critical debates for religions, gender and society:
theories, concepts and methodologies * Issues and themes in
religions, gender and society * Contexts and locations Within these
sections, central issues, debates and problems are examined,
including activism, gender analysis, intersectionality and
feminism, oppression and liberation, equality, bodies and
embodiment, space and place, leadership and authority, diaspora and
migration, marriage and the family, generation and aging, health
and reproduction, education, violence and conflict, ecology and
climate change and the role of social media. The Routledge Handbook
of Religion, Gender and Society is essential reading for students
and researchers in religious studies and gender studies. The
Handbook will also be very useful for those in related fields, such
as cultural studies, area studies, politics, sociology,
anthropology and history.
