THE 458 Intercultural Feminist Theology

This course takes as the starting point gender violence as a phenomenon across cultures around the globe. With its main premise that gender violence is linked with gender inequity it studies how this inequity has its roots in patriarchal traditions, cultural practices, and religious beliefs. It ends with the study of gender resistance, through feminist theo-religious reconstructions and liberative activism.
