The sub-theme of gender and religions will deal with power issues from diverse traditional religions and religious movements from around the world. Scholars of gender studies and religions can make an important contribution by scrutinizing the role of gender ideology and religions to create a gender-equal society. This theme concerns text-based, as well as living and practiced religions, and will provide a relevant forum for contributions to topics such as historical, philosophical, theological, sociological, anthropological, psychological, textual analysis and performance-based issues relating to gender and religions.
