- Description
- Gender has traditionally proven to be a 'blind spot' for new institutionalists. This book emphasizes gender as a critical aspect of institutions and opens up new avenues to interrogate the dynamics of power and change. Focussing on the EU, where institutional efforts to realize gender equality are quite pronounced, the book interrogates attempts to bring about more 'gender just' states - supranationally, nationally, and more locally. The book takes a 'best case' scenario in order to illuminate how institutions and their gendering, help and hinder institutional change.

- Description
- Prodigiously learned, alive to the massive social changes of her time, defiant of many Victorian orthodoxies, George Eliot is at once chronicler and analyst, novelist of nostalgia and monumental thinker. In her novel Middlemarch she writes of 'that tempting range of relevancies called the universe'. This volume identifies a range of 'relevancies' that form the various contexts - of her time, and of our own - pertinent to understanding and in the fullest sense appreciating George Eliot. The dimensions of her achievement are illuminated by essays on particular facets of the many contexts - historical, intellectual, political, social, cultural - that inform her work.

Across the region water determines livelihoods and in sometimes survival.Water access depends on power relations and politics. The contributors show how gender intersects with other axes of social difference such as class, caste, ethnicity, age, and religion, to shape water use and management practices. They demonstrate that gender issues are the key to understanding and improving water distribution and management practices in the region.
