Exploring our belief in dividing, conquering, controlling, and converting, this catechism explains both contemporary culture and monotheism by its root--patriarchy. Inclusive of genderism/sexism, racism, and classism, patriarchy is over ten thousand years old, and is the real religion behind our cultural beliefs and many contemporary faiths. Gordon engages this topic through the lenses of Creation Spirituality, and suggests ritual forms that help us break free of our traditions. The Catechism of Patriarchy found within this work articulates clearly what we have come to believe about ourselves and our cultures.

Since the second half of the 1980s social movements, which questioned the legitimacy of the hitherto seemingly stable systems of Kemalist Turkey and socialist Balkans, won ground. Political Islam struck Turkey; in the Balkan socialist countries the dams broke, and parliamentary democracies replaced monolithic socialist regimes. These processes have not been gender neutral. Therefore the central question is: after the abolition of patriarchy and the official installation of gender equality, are patriarchy and female discrimination returning in the region through the backdoor, although in a modernized version?
