Bringing together disciplines across the arts, humanities and social sciences, this Handbook presents novel and lively examinations of the dynamic ways religion, gender and sexuality operate. By virtue of its core terms however, the field of religion, gender, and sexuality studies has routinely linked together a common set of identities, practices, beliefs, experiences, and structures that may construct, rather than dismantle, relations of power. Applying feminist, intersectional, and reflexive approaches, the volume aims to loosen imperialist and exclusionary figurations that have underwritten and tethered religion, gender, and sexuality together. While holding onto the field of inquiry, the Handbook offers contributions that interrogate and untie it from the terms and conditions that have formed it. The volume is organized into thematic sections:- Forces and Futures- Activisms and Labors- Agencies and Practices- Relationships and Institutions- Texts and Objects.Chapters range across religious, geographical, historical, political, and social contexts and feature an array of case-studies, experiences, and topics that exemplify the reflexive intention of the volume, including explorations of race, whiteness, colonialism, and the institutional intolerance of minority groups. Contributors also advance new areas of research in religion including artificial intelligence, farming, migrant mothering, child sexual abuse, mediatization, national security, legal frameworks, addiction and recovery, decolonial hermeneutics, creative arts, sport, sexual practices, and academic friendship. This is an essential contribution to the fields of religious studies and gender and sexuality studies.
Addresses a crucial issue within the debate on religious belonging and departure: the role of women in and out of religion and spirituality. This volume addresses not only women's place in and out of Christianity but also alternative spiritualities and Islam, asking how questions of secularization differ between faith systems.
