Religion and spirituality are central to women’s and men’s lives across the world, yet mainstream development policy and practice rarely takes account of this. This collection of articles explores the complex links between social and economic development and religious and spiritual belief and assesses the cost to development of ignoring these links. Writers of many faiths, and of none, explore the scope for promoting women’s rights and needs offered by religious belief and practice, and analyze feminist responses to fundamentalist regimes which use religious doctrine to justify women’s oppression. This book will be of interest to students and academics in the field of development studies, women's studies, philosophy and religion, as well as to development practitioners.
