- Description
- Greed and lust are generally considered good only for men, and then only outside the realm of family life. The history of Western economic ideas shows that men have given themselves more cultural permission than women for the pursuit of both economic and sexual self-interest. Feminists have long contested the boundaries of this permission, demanding more than mere freedom to act more like men. Women have gradually gained the power to revise our conceptual and moral maps and to insist on a better-and less gendered-balance between self interest and care for others. This book brings women's work, their sexuality, and their ideas into the center of the dialectic between economic history and the history of economic ideas. It describes a spiralling process of economic and cultural change in Great Britain, France, and the United States since the 18th century that shaped the evolution of patriarchal capitalism and the larger relationship between production and reproduction. This feminist reinterpretation of our past holds profound implications for today's efforts to develop a more humane and sustainable form of capitalism.

- Description
- During recent years in North America many feminists have become increasingly critical of responses to street prostitution that concentrate solely on punishing women who sell sex while ignoring their male clients. In order to address this gender imbalance some feminists have advocated the enforcement and/or strengthening of kerb crawling.

- Description
- Naar aanleiding van internationale vrouwendag op acht maart 2007 een aantal artikelen over de positie van vrouwen. Staatssecretaris van Defensie Cees van der Knaap vertelt onder andere over vrouwen in de krijgsmacht. China, het land dat het wereldleiderschap verkiest, kent traditioneel een zeer vrouwvijandige mentaliteit. Mede door het één-kindpolitiek is de man-vrouwbalans ver zoek. Verwacht wordt dat in 2020 dertig miljoen mannen in de huwbare leeftijd gedwongen vrijgezel zullen blijven en dat vijf jaar later al tien procent van de Chinese mannen buiten de boot zal vallen. De Britse schrijfster Rachel Cusk beschrijft in haar romans het eigentijds vrouwelijk onbehagen. Ségolène Royal wil de eerste vrouwelijke president van Frankrijk worden. Haar campagne is echter in het slop geraakt. Mannelijkheid in vrouwen lijkt te worden gewaardeerd. Vrouwen zijn seksueel vrijgevochten, ondanks het verschil dat er gemaakt wordt tussen een slet en een flinke jongen bij dezelfde mate van promiscue gedrag. De Amerikaanse journaliste Ariel Levy trekt met haar 'Female chauvinist pigs: women and the rise of the raunch culture' dit onderwerp weer terug in het debat. Aan de basis van haar analyse staat de seksualisering van de westerse samenleving, waarin porno een publieke aangelegenheid is geworden. Ingegaan wordt ook op het hedendaagse feminisme en waar het zich anno 2007 moet bezig houden.

- Description
- This book traces the history of contraception use and population management in colonial India, while illuminating its connection to contemporary debates in India and birth control movements in Great Britain and the United States. Ahluwalia draws attention to the interactive and relational history of Indian birth control by including western activists such as Margaret Sanger and Marie Stopes alongside important Indian campaigners. In revealing the elitist politics of middle-class feminists, Indian nationalists, western activists, colonial authorities and the medical establishment, Ahluwalia finds similatities between these groups in rationalizing procreation and regulating women while invoking competing notions of freedom, femininity, and family.

- Description
- Does gender make a difference to the way the judiciary works and should work? Or, is gender blindness a built-in prerequisite of judicial objectivity? If gender does make a difference, how might this be defined? These are the key questions posed in this collection of essays. The book's pressing topicality is underlined by the fact that male opposition to women's admission to, and progress within, the judicial profession has been largely based on the argument that, because of their gender, women are naturally programmed to show empathy, partiality, and gendered prejudice - in short, essential qualities running directly counter to the need for judicial bjectivity. There remains a more or less pronounced glass ceiling to women's judicial careers.

- Description
- Gender and colonial space is an analysis of relation between social relations – including notions of class, nationality and gender – and spatial relations, landscape, topography and travel – in post-colonial contexts. .Arguing against much of the psychoanalytic focus of current post-colonial theory, Mills aims to set out in a new direction, drawing on a wide range of literary and non-literary texts to illustrate a more materialist approach. She foregrounds gender in this field where it has often been marginalised by the critical orthodoxies, demonstrating its importance not only in spatial theorising in general, but in the post-colonial theorising of space in particular. .Concentrating on the period of ‘high’ British colonialism at the close of the nineteenth century, she adroitly examines a range of contexts, roving across India, Africa, America, Australia and Britain, illustrating how relations must be analysed for the way in which different colonial contexts define, constitute and re-constitute each other.
