Presents a groundbreaking global exploration of queer theologies across religions, regions, and spiritual traditions Global Queer Theologies: Intercontextual and Interreligious Perspectives is an essential and timely resource for those seeking a comprehensive understanding of queer theologies as they emerge and evolve within diverse cultural, regional, and religious frameworks. While much of queer theological discourse has historically centered on the Global North and Christian traditions, this landmark volume decisively expands the conversation, drawing on multilingual scholarship and diverse lived experiences to illuminate the theological expressions of queer believers across global contexts. Demonstrating how queer communities actively reinterpret sacred texts and spiritual practices, the text serves not only as an introduction to queer theological thought but also as a teaching tool designed to foster inclusive classroom engagement. Structured for clarity and pedagogical effectiveness, each chapter presents a focused exploration of a religious tradition or theme, complemented by visual aids and discussion prompts that encourage critical reflection and dialogue. The contributing authors map the rich, complex intersections of faith, sexuality, and identity, amplify voices long silenced or overlooked, and illuminate the sacred narratives of queer believers from across the globe. Bridging theory with lived experience, emphasizing theological agency in marginalized contexts, Global Queer Theologies: Intercontextual and Interreligious Perspectives: Includes analysis of underexplored spiritual systems such as Shinto, Confucianism, paganism, and ancestral religions Employs a thematic and regional organizational structure that engages readers with both theory and practice Incorporates glossaries for enhanced clarity and reader accessibility in each section and original diagrams and graphics that map religious structures and spiritual genealogies throughout Features highlight boxes within chapters that introduce key thinkers, terms, and movements without disrupting the narrative flow Contains discussion questions at the end of each chapter to support student reflection and faculty-led dialogue The first volume of its kind to offer truly global coverage of queer theologies across major and minor religious traditions, Global Queer Theologies: Intercontextual and Interreligious Perspectives is ideal for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in theology, religious studies, gender studies, and queer theory.
