Description
Summary:This article recognizes the impact of feminist discourses on Christianity over the last fifty years. It critically engages and deconstructs a variety of the key theological and methodological mechanisms by which various feminist informed theologies are informed, sustained and indeed claimed to be viable by feminist values and critiques. It incorporates a shift away from a discourse characterized by questions of compatibility and incompatibility, to one focused on method. The key research question posed in this article is: ‘How do each of the theologies investigated employ radical insights of feminisms while at the same time claim to maintain a clear relationship to the perceived Christian tradition?’
