- Description
- This book gathers together contributions by experts in various fields – including law, sociology, philosophy and anthropology – to pin down the relationship between institutions and the gender binary. Centrally, it examines the way in which the present-day gender binary is shored up by the conceptualization and regulation of sex and gender at societal and institutional levels.

- Description
- Addresses how sexual practices and identities are imagined and regulated through development discourses and within institutions of global governance, such as the World Bank. The argument is made that the so called development industry plays a central role in constructing people’s sexual lives, access to citizenship, and struggles for livelihood. Despite its insistence on viewing sexuality as basically outside the realm of economic modernization and anti-poverty programs, the authors argue that there is a heterosexual bias.

- Description
- The essays, nine of the 13 were previously published between 1987 and 2003, explore how to live a life that expresses one's own unique personality and distinctive values. Coverage includes autonomous action and its bearing on gender, women's subordination, and women's resistance to demeaning cultural norms and sexist institutional strictures: the multi-dimensionality of the autonomous agent: the self and agency in specifically moral contexts: agency in hostile social contexts: and how the value of cultural perpetuation can conflict with individual liberty and how such conflicts can be addressed.

- Description
- The contributors to this volume argue that it all comes down to sex and money: how the media are organized, how they work, what they say, who gets to say it and to whom. The book shows how questions of gender and economics are inextricably linked to issues of power in Western capitalist societies. Integrating political economy and feminism, it offers an understanding of communication at the personal and institutional levels, and exposes the ways in which sex and money are sutured into individual's daily lives.

- Description
- The articles in this book are written by legal advocates, community activists and legal scholars. The ten essays examine theories of intersectionality to demonstrate how race, class, sexual orientation, gender and identity have been integrated into legal scholarship and activism in an attempt to shape legal policy and practice. Section I addresses anti-racism in community legal practice, the legal construction of women's sexuality as deviant, the protection of sexual orientation under human rights legislation, and the gender and racial characteristics of the judiciary. Section 2 looks at women's place in the legal profession, international women's rights, and disrupting discriminatory practices in the workplace. Section 3 discusses the rights of Native women, racial bias in legal judgements, and the recognition and protection of same-sex spousal rights.

- Description
- Urgency Required focuses on urgent issues of gay and lesbian liberation, taking a historical perspective and reflecting worldwide geographic diversity. Employing the term ‘LGBT-persons’, the acronym used for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender, it explores concepts and strategies for taking steps towards decriminalization and equal rights and treatment regarding sexual orientation and gender identity. From subtle discrimination to imprisonment, torture, the death penalty and murder: human rights violations against sexual minorities are carried out on a daily basis around the world, not least by governments, in breach of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, promulgated since 1948. In some eighty countries, gays and lesbians are still regarded as criminals, sometimes awaiting life imprisonment or the death penalty. Not even recognized as human beings, they can be denied rights covered by the whole range of human rights legislation.
