- Description
- Interdisciplinary reader demonstrates how widely feminist thinking has spread, how deeply it has shaken settled assumptions in the disciplines and how much new light it throws on contemporary controversies.This volume offers not only a reference manual to what we now know about gender relations as social forces but also gives impetus to future thinking in imaginative and utopian ways about questions of gender, power and knowledge. Each chapter explores contemporary questions and dilemmas in feminist theory and research, assessing the impacts of past research and feminist actions. Leading scholars discuss such topics as the state of women's and gender studies, feminist epistemology, cultural representations, globalization and the state, families, and work.

- 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
- This book collects more than a hundred texts dating back to 1711, each introduced with short notes. In the 1960s, the five countries represented—Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia—achieved independence. Women made historic contributions in the resistance struggles and later during the process of development, as entries from activists and eloquent members of parliament attest. The volume has entries of uncommon historical interest including two rare texts by former slave: a 1711 letter written by a woman who ruled a large Muslim domain: a mid-19th-century Muslim epic poem, freshly translated: a Christian hymn dating to 1890: and a memoir by a Mau Mau general. The 2004 Nobel Peace Prize Lecture by Wangari Maathai, the first environmentalist and the first African woman named a Nobel laureate, concludes the volume. While Kiswahili is the dominant language of the region, along with English, 31 other languages have been translated for the volume. Motherhood, education, religion, workforce participation, widows’ rights, prostitution, polygamy, circumcision, rebellion, and HIV/AIDS are some of the subjects examined in fiction, poetry, letters, journalism, oral histories, speeches, and historical documents spanning three centuries.

- Description
- Social capital refers to connections among individuals ( social networks and the norms of reciprocity and trustworthiness that arise from them ) This volume brings together a group of contributors who examine the social capital thesis by means of four different approaches: theoretical, historical, comparative, and empirical. In the end, this book will serve to answer two fundamental questions which have hitherto been neglected: What can a gendered analysis tell us about social capital? And what can social capital tell us about women and politics?

- Description
- This analysis of cyberpunk science fiction written between 1981 and 2003 positions women's cyberpunk in the larger cultural discussion of feminist issues. It traces the origins of the genre, reviews the critical reactions and outlines the ways in which women's cyberpunk advances points of view that are specifically feminist. Novels are examined within their cultural contexts: their content is compared to broader controversies within contemporary feminism, and their themes are revealed as reflections of feminist discourse around the turn of the 21st century.

- Description
- Multispecies feminist theorist Haraway offers new ways to reconfigure our relations to the earth and all its inhabitants. She refers to our epoch as the Anthropocene, preferring to conceptualize it as what she calls the Chthulucene, as it more fully describes our epoch as one in which the human and nonhuman are inextricably linked in tentacular practices. The Chthulucene requires sym-poiesis or self-making. Learning to stay with the trouble of living and dying together on a damaged earth will prove more conducive to the kind of thinking that would provide the means to building more livable futures.

- Description
- Een bundel essays van Latijns-Amerikaanse, Aziatische en Afrikaanse vrouwen over eco-theologische onderwerpen in derde wereldlanden en de invloed daarvan op vrouwen in de westerse wereld. De verbindende schakel tussen de bijdragen is niet het bewuste gebruik van een een speciale ideologie over hoe vrouwen en de natuur met elkaar verbonden zijn, maar eerder een complexe realiteit van hoe vrouwen en natuur zowel door hun eigen gemeenschappen als door koloniale machten zijn uitgebuit, hoe vrouwen optreden als bemiddelaars van het belang van de natuur voor hun gezinnen en in deze context, als zorgdragers voor de natuur. De volgende bijdragen zijn opgenomen: The trinity and human experience: an ecofeminist approach / door Ivone Gebara: In us life grows : an ecofeminist point of view / door Mercedes Canas: Latin America's poor women: inherent guardians of life / door Gladys Parentelli: Foreigners: a multicultural dialogue / door Janet W.

- Description
- A Companion to Gender Studies presents a comprehensive vision of its field, and its new directions. It is designed to demonstrate in action the rich interplay between gender and other markers of social position and (dis)privilege, such as race, class, ethnicity, and nationality. The book is organized thematically and each chapter gives insightful consideration to the differing views on its topic, and also clarifies each contributor's own position.
