- Description
- Offering detailed analyses of slave emancipation in specific societies, the contributors discuss all of the diverse actors in emancipation : slaves, abolitionists, free people of colour, state officials, and slave owners. Whether considering the construction of a postslavery masculine subjectivity in Jamaica, the work of two white U.S. abolitionist women with the Freedmen's Bureau after the Civil War, freedwomen's negotiations of labour rights in Puerto Rico, slave women's contributions to the slow unraveling of slavery in French West Africa, or the ways Brazilian abolitionists deployed representations of femininity as virtuous and moral, these essays demonstrate the gains that a gendered apporach offers to understanding the complex processes of emancipation. Some chapters also explore theories and methodologies that enable a gendered reading of postslavery archives. the editors' substantial introduction traces the reasons for and patterns of women's and men's different experiences of emancipation throughout the Atlantic world.

- Description
- Collection of articles discussing gender, with examples of gender constructive processes within various contexts and by means of diverse methodologies. It addresses issues such as gender performativity, its variances depending on their historical, social and cultural contexts and the rituals, representations and institutions involved in gender performances. It demonstrates that it is impossible to consider gender as a fixed biological trait. The authors propose to look at gender performance as an ongoing process in which femininities and masculinities imply dynamic intersections with categories such as nationality, ethnicity, class, sexuality and age. With cases from South Africa, United States and Brazil.

- Description
- Different kinds of partnerships for ending gender-based violence are explored, including men's roles and responsibilities within these. These roles in and responsibilities for change range across the spectrum, from men changing their relationships with their intimate partners to male-dominated institutions changing the way they function in order to better confront issues of gender and violence. Some of the individual, institutional and structural changes that are required are discussed in this volume, as are ways in which men can become partners, with each other and with women, in making these changes.
