| Summary |
Haberman applies similar concerns about religion and society as inspired the Christianity-focused Liberation Theology to Judaism, especially in Israel. Engaging feminist interpretation of Jewish sources with first-hand struggles of a 23 year-strong social change movement in Jerusalem, "Women of the Wall," this book interrogates the interplay between civil and religious authority and contributes toward liberating religious culture from its gender oppressions, and toward rendering religion a liberating force in society. </span |
