- Description
- In dit boek vertelt de auteur de geschiedenis van de internationale Graalbeweging, die in 1921 in Nederland werd opgericht als de Vrouwen van Nazareth, een lekengezelschap van katholieke vrouwen. De militante meisjes- en vrouwenbeweging kwam tot bloei in een herlevend katholicisme in het Interbellum, met het ideaal van de wereldbekering. Vanuit Nederland verspreidde de Graal zich naar verschillende Europese landen, de Verenigde Staten en Australië. Na de tweede wereldoorlog maakte het religieuze radicalisme langzaam plaats voor christelijke en praktische vorming. De Graal werd synoniem voor beroepsopleidingen in de verpleging, de wijk en het huishouden, en voor lekenmissie voor en door jonge vrouwen, zowel in Nederland als in Afrika, Azië en Zuid-Amerika. De auteur schetst hoe de Graal er via een langdurig en soms pijnlijk proces van zelfreflectie in slaagde om het ideaal van 'anderen overtuigen' om te buigen tot een van 'mondiale verbondenheid' en diversiteit.

- Description
- This volume reflects the potential of a new perspective that allows for a more adequate analysis of transnational activities, by looking at the lives and work of women’s activists in informal border-crossings, ephemeral NGOs, the lower management of established international organizations, and other global networks. By pointing out cultural hierarchies, the vicissitudes of translation and re-interpretation, and the ambiguity of intercultural exchange, this volume demonstrates the potential of transnational history.

- Description
- Dit artikel brengt verschillende langlopende, wereldwijde vergelijkende studies over vrouwenwerk samen in 3 sectoren: de textielindustrie, huishoudelijke dienstverlening en sekswerk vanaf de zeventiende eeuw tot nu. Zowel in het noorden als het zuiden werkte ten minste de helft van de historische wereldbevolking (vrouwen) vaak in onderbetaalde, slecht georganiseerde banen, onder ongelijke machtsverhoudingen. Ondanks deze consistente ondergeschiktheidspraktijken, benadrukt dit artikel ook dat binnen de gegeven beperkingen, vrouwelijke arbeiders die formeel machteloos waren, aanzienlijke keuzevrijheid konden uitoefenen, gebruikmakend van informele netwerken en machtsmechanismen die vaak voortkwamen uit de inherente intimiteit van de arbeidsrelaties waarmee ze te maken hadden in.

- Description
- The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) is one of the most important human rights tools ever created. Adopted in 1979 by the United Nations General Assembly, it is often described as an international bill of rights for women. These essays and personal reflections, from individuals who have served on the committee that monitors CEDAW, introduce readers to the issues and the activism. .Only a handful of countries have refused to ratify CEDAW: the United States is the only industrialized country among them. This book reveals the profound impact the convention has had on women's lives around the world and its potential to affect American women. With examples and moving reminiscences from Japan to Tunisia to the Caribbean and beyond, this collection addresses CEDAW's impact on women in Islam, labor markets, migration, violence against women, human trafficking, women in politics, and more.
