This book is about ecofeminism and its encounter with theology,
predominantly that of Christian theology in Euro-western contexts.
It introduces and explores ecofeminism and the encounter. The goal
is to understand the significance and implications of ecofeminism
and its contribution and challenge to theology. A further goal is
to assist ecofeminist theology, or theologies, to be more effective
in preventing ecological ruin, assisting women's struggles for
freedom and supporting the flourishing of all life on earth.
Ecofeminism represents ways of discerning associations of many
kinds between the feminist and ecological movements, and between
the oppression and domination of both women and the earth.
Ecofeminism is an insight, referring to critical analyses,
political actions, historical research, intuitions and ideals. The
ecological crisis is creating a pivotal moral and religious
challenge, and new contexts for theology. There is a renewed
spiritual sensitivity towards the natural world. We are in a time
of a spiritual awakening, wherein the earth and all life are
experienced, as sacred, where it is possible to experience awe and
wonder, and encounter the ineffable. Ecofeminist theologies are at
the intersection of these ideas and experiences. They are the
efforts of particular people who see and experience possibilities
for greater life, more justice and freedom. They do not accept that
injustice and ecological ruin are inevitable. Ecofeminist efforts
are directed towards reducing further ecological and social
devastation, and awakening consciousness to the immense beauty and
elegance of all life on this fragile yet awesome blue-green planet.
