Asian women comprise more than a quarter of the world's population,
and the forms in which they express feminist theology are many and
varied, extending through grassroots movements, theological
networks, ecumenical conferences and journals. Those involved in
the process include community organizers, theological students,
church leaders and social activists, among whom even the concept
'feminism' assumes many definitions and substitutes. Kwok Pui-lan's
introduction to this huge subject begins with a survey of the
social, political and cultural contexts of Asian women's
experiences, and then traces the emergence of feminist
consciousness and the organization of women's networks. She
describes the resources of Asian feminist theology and the
appropriation of Asian religious traditions, and considers the
reconstructions of the concept of God in inclusive categories.
Finally, she summarizes Asian women's critique of the patriarchal
church and outlines the search for a new spirituality that express
women's embodiedness and sexuality.>
