A theologically informed look at the postcolonial self that forms as Korean immigrants confront life in the United States.Theologian Choi Hee An explores how Korean immigrants create a new, postcolonial identity in response to life in the United States. A Postcolonial Self begins with a discussion of a Korean ethnic self ("Woori" or "we") and how it differs from Western norms. Choi then looks at the independent self, the theological debates over this concept, and the impact of racism, sexism, classism, and postcolonialism on the formation of this self. She concludes with a look at how Korean immigrants, especially immigrant women, cope with the transition to US culture, including prejudice and discrimination, and the role the Korean immigrant church plays in this. Choi posits that an emergent postcolonial self can be characterized as "I and We with Others." In Korean immigrant theology and church, an extension of this can be characterized as "radical hospitality," a concept that challenges both immigrants and American society to consider a new mutuality.

Drawing upon postcolonial theory and its analysis of power, Choi examines the multilayered dynamics of the Asian immigrant community and Christian congregations in their postcolonial contexts, and offers a new liberative interpretation of colonized history and culture in order to propose postcolonial leadership as a new leadership model for Asian immigrant leaders.

Explores how women religious leaders develop and practice self-confidence and humility and transform these qualities into a form of collaborative leadership.Considering the many challenges women leaders face, self-confidence and humility are among the most crucial yet controversial leadership qualities for women. However, they are often seen as individual personality traits rather than having been developed intentionally and out of necessity in women's sociopolitical, religious, and cultural lives. Using religious women leaders as examples, this book illustrates how women actively build self-confidence and humility amid multiple intersectionalities and transform these qualities into a form of collaborative leadership within their religious ministerial roles. Recognizing the complex processes involved in women's leadership development, the book demonstrates how both women leaders and religious women leaders practice self-confidence and humility based on their experiences of otherness and how they navigate challenges within their gendered leadership contexts. It examines women's experiences of otherness through gender roles and the glass ceiling and analyzes the ideas of self-confidence and humility across various sociocultural and religious settings.
