Passport to Heaven (RLE Women and Religion): Gender Roles in the Unification Church - Routledge Library Editions: Women and Religion
Kathleen S. Lowney
This book focuses on the gender roles within the Unification Church, and on particularly the gender roles as expressed through the vows of marriage. It examines the more widely shared patriarchal assumptions about women in a circumscribed socio-religious environment, with the Church?s gender role system being investigated largely on the level of its theological explanations for gender roles. The Church?s ethos, its lived reality, is also examined, and for this many interviews have been conducted with the ?blessed?, the married couples.
First published in 1992.
