Publisher's Synopsis
While there is a multiplicity of identity markers that affect the dynamics of
intercultural communication, the intersectionality of gender and religion
deserves more scholarly attention. The book takes the dissimilar cultural
concepts and identity performance as a starting point, exploring the
significant role that the religious indoctrinations play in the construction
and performance of gender. It features contributions by the scholars
in the field of communication, gender and cultural studies, including
theoretical reflections on the socio-cultural formation of identity, dogmatic
impositions on gender roles, and the performance of gender identity in
intercultural settings.
