The cold war border was crossed between 1961 and 1989 through Berlin Fellowship, an ecumenical visitation program.

This book engages with the critical tools of Edward Said (1935-2003) and traces the voyage of various postcolonial feminist theologians. Along four intersecting lines, postcolonial feminist theology unfolds as addressing cultural othering, religious othering, gendered othering, and sexual othering.
