- Description
- Markens takes on one of the most important issues on the fertility front--surrogate motherhood--in a book that illuminates the culture wars that have erupted over new reproductive technologies in the United States. In an analysis of legislative responses to surrogacy in the states of New York and California, Markens explores how discourses about gender, family, race, genetics, rights, and choice have shaped policies aimed at this issue. She examines the views of key players, including legislators, women's organizations, religious groups, the media, and others. In a study that finds ideological agreement among those with opposing views of surrogate motherhood, Markens challenges common assumptions about our responses to reproductive technologies and at the same time offers a fascinating picture of how reproductive politics shape social policy.

- Description
- In this book, the author sets out to demonstrate how feminist theorizing is relevant to issues that may seem less directly about the status and emancipation of women but that are vital, she argues, to forming connections with other important twenty-first century movements. The author shows how a feminist approach to crafting these connections can shed light on the economic disparity and entrenched gender inequality of global markets: the role technology plays in our conception of reproductive rights, sexual identity, and gender: the rise of religious fanaticism: and the relationship between our conceptions of gender, nonhuman animals, and the environment.

- Description
- Study of social and political life must attend to gender as a category of analysis. This book explores the gendered dimensions of a central organizing unit in social and political science: the nation-state. Contributors rescue gender from the margins of theoretical discussions on the nation, the state, public policy, and citizenship by bringing the insights of feminist analysis to bear on three relationships central to popular and policy discussions in contemporary Canada and other countries: gender and nation, gender and state processes, and gender and citizenship. The book employs a comparative framework and builds upon three decades of work in the multidisciplinary areas of women's studies, gender and politics, and political science.
