What kind of economic, political, cultural and religious factors shape women’s lives in today’s plural societies? The questions raised in this volume were originally voiced at a conference in Salamanca, Spain in 2012 where European women theologians searched for ways to listen, understand and give theological answers to such questions in multiple constructive and positive ways. The variety and richness of the papers collected in this volume testifies to the multiple voices and diverse possibilities that feminist theologies have to critically analyze existing realities and to imagine others.


What kind of economic, political, cultural and religious factors shape women’s lives in today’s plural societies? The questions raised in this volume were originally voiced at a conference in Salamanca, Spain in 2012 where European women theologians searched for ways to listen, understand and give theological answers to such questions in multiple constructive and positive ways. In order to face the challenge of living diversity and plurality, feminist theologies need to open up to the reality of the other and their specific contribution to the whole. Plurality thus understood is an organic whole, a communion that changes with each addition or subtraction of new, diverse realities, which needs, in order to grow and realise itself, the dialogue among different ethnic or cultural groups, religious and secular discourses, academic and non-academic theological reflections. The variety and richness of the papers collected in this volume testifies to the multiple voices and diverse possibilities that feminist theologies have to critically analyse existing realities and to imagine others.
