Towards New Research Agendas in Latin America in Times of the Green Tide

This brief reflection I was invited to write indicates what I think is or should be crucial in discussions about religion and gender for the next 10 years. This article formulates suggestions and offers some answers to these questions: How does the renewed and new theorizing of critical studies of race, postcoloniality, and decoloniality question and challenge the basic concepts (and presuppositions) in the study of religion and gender? What are the implications of queer and trans theory for the study of religion and gender? Why are the fields of embodiment, sexuality and gender the battlefields par excellence where the tensions between religion(s) and secularism are manifested in contemporary societies? How do we relate actual scholarly-analytical approaches to the study of religion and gender with the political origins and edges of feminist, queer, postcolonial and critical race theories?Fil: Felitti, Karina Alejandra.
