Asian Christianity in the Diaspora3-319-69507-X Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.This book offers a critical-constructive study of Korean women’s self-esteem from a feminist practical theological perspective. Jaeyeon Lucy Chung recognizes two different and yet related problems: the absence of scholarly work on women’s self-esteem from non-white, non-Western groups in the field of practical theology, and the lack of attention to the low self-esteem prevalent in Korean women’s sociocultural and religious context.  Chung employs in-depth interview studies while drawing on theoretical resources of psychology, theology, and cultural studies to develop a relational-communal theory of self-esteem, and a systematic, communal understanding of pastoral care practice. The project offers insights into the life experience of Korean women, especially self-esteem, and it reveals some of the ways self-esteem can be fostered.Asian Christianity in the DiasporaFeminist theologyEthnology—AsiaPsychology and religionFeminist Theologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A3020Asian Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411040Religion and Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y46000Feminist theology.Ethnology—Asia.Psychology and religion.Feminist Theology.Asian Culture.Religion and Psychology.202.082Chung Jaeyeon Lucyauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut921294BOOK9910255211903321Korean Women, Self-Esteem, and Practical Theology2066403UNINA
