- Description
- Women and men experience disaster differently, and their needs in the aftermath of disaster often differ. Bringing together perspectives from academics, emergency response specialists and development practitioners, the volume investigates to what extent and in what ways gender affects the course of post-disaster reconstruction. Conversely, it also explores in what ways gender politics may be altered by disaster and post-disaster reconstruction. The study includes: a comprehensive overview of key issues facing women and men, as gendered beings, in reconstruction and development: a targeted observation of specific South Asian disaster contexts: and a sustained discussion of case studies and their implications and lessons. Contents: 1. Introduction / Linda Racioppi: 2. Gender differential impacts of the 2004 tsunami / Chaman Pincha: 3. The interplay of women, work and disasters: missing women’s views / Mihir Bhatt: 4.

- Description
- This book examines gender within the context of disaster risk management. It argues for gender mainstreaming as an effective strategy towards achieving disaster risk reduction and mitigating post-disaster gender disparity. Highlighting that gender inequalities pervade all aspects of life, it analyses the failure to implement inclusive and gender-sensitive approaches to relief and rehabilitation work. While examining positive strategies for change, the collection focuses on women s knowledge, capabilities, leadership and experience in community resource management. The authors emphasize that these strengths in women, which are required for building resilience to hazards and disasters, are frequently overlooked.

- Description
- This introduction to gender aspects of climate change starts with a short history of the thinking and practice around gender and sustainable development over the past decades. Next it provides a theoretical framework for analyzing climate change manifestations and policies from the perspective of gender and human security. The actual and potential effects of climate change on gender equality and women's vulnerabilities are examined, both in rural and urban contexts. This is illustrated with a range of case studies from all over the world. The final section looks at how far gender mainstreaming in climate mitigation and adaptation has advanced, the policy frameworks in place and how to move from policy to effective action.

- 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
- Social inequalities have consequences for the everyday lives of women and girls where power relations, institutional and socio-cultural practices make them disadvantaged in terms of disaster preparedness and experience. Chapters in this book unravel how gender and masculinity intersect with age, ethnicity, sexuality and class in specific contexts around the globe. It looks at the various kinds of difficulties for particular groups before, during and after disastrous events such as typhoons, flooding, landslides and earthquakes. It explores how issues of gender hierarchies, patriarchal structures and masculinity are closely related to gender segregation, institutional codes of behaviour and to a denial of environmental crisis.

- The contributors explore interactions between gender and environment in history. Ranging from colonial borderlands to transnational boundaries, from mountaintop to marketplace, they focus on historical representations of humans and nature, on questions about consumption, on environmental politics and on the relations among human bodies and changing landscapes. They also challenge the the notion that men and women are essentially different creatures with biologically different destinies. Each article shows how a person or group of people in history have understood nature in gendered terms and acted accordingly.

The introductory paper, focusing on the history and current status of gender and natural resources management, is followed by five further papers presenting cases of this approach. The papers examine diverse natural resources from different perspectives, ranging from the household and community level to national and regional policy. They examine the security of women's rights to common property resources and land in West Africa: mainstreaming gender in water policy and institutions in Gujarat, India: gender-responsive planning in wetland development in Uganda: empowering women in managing natural resources in mountain areas of the Hundu-Kish Himalayas of Pakistan: and the development of gender policies for environmental ministries in Mesoamerica.

The second section emphasizes global issues, including the impact of technology and the globalization of hypercapitalism on the type of work women do, the growing incarceration of women and their use as nonpaid workers, reproductive rights, domestic violence, and equal pay for equal work.

- Description
- Rachel Carson, who was a nature and science writer, has been credited with founding the modern environmental movement. 'Silent Spring', published in 1962, provoked a public outcry against the dangers of indiscriminate pesticide use and chemical toxins in the environment. Exposing her enthusiasm for the natural world and the depth of her writings, the contributors to this book examine her books, speeches, essays, and the letters she wrote as she prepared to die from breastcancer. Themes in the book are: a legacy of activism and advocacy: ethics on land and sea: reflections on gender and science: an ongoing toxic discourse: and a legacy of wonder.

- Description
- A close analysis of current policy and practice shows that organizations providing improved water supplies to poor communities typically neglect the gendered nature of access to and control over water resources. The resulting gender bias causes inefficiencies and injustices in water provision and reduces the effectiveness of well-meant efforts. This book shows how in different environmental, historical and cultural contexts gender has been an important element in water provision. It draws on a wide range of material, analyzed from different disciplinary perspectives. Case studies include analysis of the role of water in inhibiting the fight against HIV/AIDS in southern Africa and the challenges of taking gender into account in large water projects in India and Nepal.

- Description
- This book addresses how women experience or are denied citizenship from the perspective of multi-disciplinary research and through the use of wide-ranging case studies. The case studies demonstrate both the diversity of women's lives and the commonalities of many of the problems they face. The book considers how politico-legal definitions of citizenship and the practices that these inform are often disengaged from women's lives or, indeed, are intended to envelop those lives in gender stereotypes. Each case-study considers how women challenge these normative assumptions and, through their own activities, create an empowered citizenship.
