"Similar to the broader field of Mormon history, scholarship missions has favored the nineteenth century. Works treating women’s experiences in the missions lean toward the twentieth century, due to women’s later participation. The general context for twentieth-century missions, however, has received little synthesis and almost no institutional development has been traced. This chapter proffers five periods for Mormon missions, each characterized by a main proselytizing strategy with ramifications on gendered discourse and effects in the broader church. The following sections examine the processes of masculinization and feminization that mission has inculcated by plotting Latter-day Saint mission history in the context of gender, reviewing the scholarly literature on gender and missionary work, and entertaining the frontiers of current studies."
