Border Crossings: 25th Anniversary Conference of the Women's Studies in Religion Program
(February 2006)
Session II: Crossing Gender, Genre, and Politics
The 130 Research Associates who have participated in the Women's Studies in Religion Program have helped create a new field of scholarship shedding light on a host of issues concerning intellectual categories, public policies, and personal understandings. To celebrate the work of both past and future scholars in the program, the 25th Anniversary Conference focused on how their work both complicates and clarifies categories of gender, nation, and disciplinary studies in the context of globalization.
In the second session, current WSRP Research Associates Gannit Ankori, Constance Furey, Rosemary Carbine, Jia Jinhua, and Shahla Haeri described the projects they are working on this year, presenting the latest work in women's studies in
religion.
