- Description
- Aan de orde komen theoretische discussies zowel over identiteit als over de economische en politieke positie van vrouwen. Aan de hand van het gender vraagstuk wordt niet alleen getoond hoe de wereld georganiseerd is maar ook hoe die wereld begrepen en geïnterpreteerd wordt. Er wordt in het bijzonder ingegaan op de interactie tussen etniciteit, klasse, gender en seksualiteit.

- This book provides an overview of Spanish feminist thought from the eighteenth century to the present. It focuses on six concepts: solitude, personality, social class, work, difference and equality. It compares Spanish feminist theory with that of other countries. The author brings together arguments from different Spanish scholars.

- Description
- This book offers a theoretical account of how, in contemporary western societies, women continue to be subordinated to men through sexual love. The book defends and elaborates Anna G. Jónasdóttir’s thesis that men tend to exploit women of their ‘love power’, by means of an innovative application of critical realism. Gunnarsson also offers a critique of the state of affairs of contemporary feminist theory. The author demonstrates that the meta-theoretical framework of critical realism offers the tools that can counter the poststructuralist hegemony still prevailing in feminist theory. This book is a contribution in the field of feminist theory, in that it elaborates on crucial ontological themes of (dialectical) critical realism and the philosophy of metaReality via a discussion of the issues of love, sexuality, gender and power: and in the field of love studies, in that it offers a sophisticated account of how gender asymmetries prevail in love despite norms of gender equality and reciprocity, and in that it reconciles feminist, conflict-oriented perspectives on love with notions of love as transcending conflict.

- Description
- What kind of challenge does sexual and racial difference pose for postmodern ethics? What is the relation between ethical obligation and feminist interpretations of embodiment, passion, and eros? Ziarek argues we cannot address such questions, without putting into dialogue discourses that have hitherto been segregated: postmodern ethics, feminism, race theory, and the idea of radical democracy. Addressing diverse thinkers—including Emmanuel Levinas, Patricia Williams, Jean-François Lyotard, bell hooks, Michel Foucault, Frantz Fanon, Julia Kristeva, and Luce Irigaray—the author proposes a new conception of ethics, an ethics of dissensus that rethinks the relation between freedom and obligation in a double context of embodiment and antagonism.

- Description
- This collection provides a core introduction to Braidotti's nomadic theory and its innovative formulations, which playfully engage with Deleuze, Foucault, Irigaray, and a host of political and cultural issues. Arranged thematically, essays begin with such concepts as sexual difference and embodied subjectivity and follow with explorations in technoscience, feminism, postsecular citizenship, and the politics of affirmation. Inspired yet not confined by Deleuzian vitalism she emphasizes affects, imagination, and creativity and the politics of radical immanence. Incorporating ideas from Nietzsche and Spinoza as well, Braidotti establishes a critical-theoretical framework equal parts critique and creation. Ever mindful of the perils of defining difference in terms of denigration and the related tendency to subordinate sexualized, racialized, and naturalized others, she explores the eco-philosophical implications of nomadic theory, feminism, and the irreducibility of sexual difference and sexuality. Her dialogue with technoscience is crucial to nomadic theory, which deterritorializes the established understanding of what counts as human, along with our relationship to animals, the environment, and changing notions of materialism.

- Description
- When first published in 1972 this book was the first to address critical questions about women and mental health. Combining interviews with patients with an analysis of women's roles in history, society and myth, Chesler concludes that there is a terrible double standard when it comes to mental health. In this new edition, she addresses many of the most relevant issues to women and mental health today, including eating disorders, social acceptance of antidepressants, addictions, sexuality, postpartum depression and more.

- Description
- Spanning nearly two decades, from 1980 to 1996, this Reader investigates the debates which have best characterized feminist theory. Including such articles as Pornography and Fantasy, The Body and Cinema, Nature as Female, and A Manifesto for Cyborgs, the extracts examine thoughts on sexualtiy as a domain of exploration, the visual representation of women, what being a feminist means, and why feminists are increasingly involved in political struggles to negotiate the context and meaning of technological development.

- Description
- To understand masculine and feminine social and political history in the second half of the 20th century, one must understand the lexical history of the term gender, which was introduced in 1955 when John Money as a concept of gender role to refer to the masculine or feminine presentation of individuals whose genital organs, by reason of birth defect, were anatomically neither completely male or completely female, but hermaphroditic. .In this book, Money explores the history of gender differentiation and its impact on contemporary, postmodern social constructionist explanations of male and female. He argues that the nature vs nurture dichotomy should be abandoned in favour of a paradigm of nature/critical period/nurture. The book further discusses how some gender differences are phylogenetically shared by all people and others are ontologically unique to an individual.

- Description
- Repo shows that gender is not originally a feminist term, but emerged from the study of intersex and transsexual persons in the fields of sexology and psychology in the1950s and 1960s. Prior to the 1950s gender was used to refer to various types of any number of phenomena. In the mid-twentieth century, gender shifted from being a nominator of types to designating the sexual order of things. Over the last sixty years, the notion of gender has become an entire field of knowledge. Feminists took up the term in the 1970s to challenge biological determinism. Gender has also become a key variable in social scientific surveys of different socio-political phenomena like voting, representation, employment, salaries, and parental leave decisions. Repo analyzes the strategies and tactics of power involved in the use of 'gender' in sexology and psychology, and subsequently its reversal and counter-deployment by feminists in the 1970s and 1980s. It critiques the emergence of gender in demographic science and the implications of this genealogy for feminist theory and politics today.

- Description
- Havelock Ellis (died 1939) is acknowledged as a pioneer in the study of human sexuality, but also attracts hostility, from feminist authors in particular. Nottingham argues that recent interpretations of Ellis' work have failed to take account of the times in which he wrote and have underestimated the breadth of his contribution to progressive thought. The author examines these neglected areas considering Ellis as public health enthusiast, penal reformer, campaigner for internationalism, and promoter of the works of Ibsen and Nietzsche, as well as reinterpreting his better-known works on gender and human sexuality.

- Description
- This collection brings feminist critique to bear on contemporary postfeminist mass media culture, analyzing phenomena ranging from action films featuring violent heroines to the “girling” of aging women in productions such as the movie Something’s Gotta Give and the British television series 10 Years Younger.This book broadly defines that feminism has accomplished its goals and is now a thing of the past. It presumes that women are unsatisfied with their legal and social equality and can find fulfillment only through practices of transformation and empowerment. Postfeminism is defined by class, age, and racial exclusions: it is youth-obsessed and white and middle-class by default. Anchored in consumption as a strategy and leisure as a site for the production of the self, postfeminist mass media assumes that the pleasures and lifestyles with which it is associated are somehow universally shared and, perhaps more significantly, universally accessible.
