Constitutions and gender

Constitutions and gender
Offering a perspective on the constitutional text and record of multiple jurisdictions, from long-established to newly emerging democracies this book portrays a profound shift in our understanding of what constitutions stand for and what they do. Its central insight is that democratic constitutions must serve the needs and aspirations of all the people, and constitutional legitimacy requires opportunities for participation in both the fashioning and functioning of a country's constitution.- Creator

New perspectives on the history of gender and empire

New perspectives on the history of gender and empire
This book deals not only with 'typical' colonial empires like the British Empire, but also with those less well-studied, such as the German, Russian, Italian and U.S. empires. The focus is on various imperial formations, from colonies in Africa or Asia to settler colonial settings like Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. The book deals with key themes such as intimacy, sexuality and female education, as well as exploring aspects like the marriage regimes some empires developed or the so-called 'servant debates'. It also presents several ways in which imperial formations were structured by gender and categories like race, class, caste, sexuality, religion and citizenship.- Creator

Women's movements in post-'Arab Spring' North Africa
Revolutions broke off in North Africa and spread to the Middle East and the rest of the world in 2010 and 2011. Spontaneous, leaderless, youth-driven, and backed by social media, these revolutions called for karamah (dignity) and democracy. This book highlights the broader sources of authority that affected the emergence of new feminist actors and agents and their impact on the sociopolitical landscapes of the region.- Creator

Gender, governance and feminist analysis
This volume analyses governance practices in diverse jurisdictions in Europe and North America, at multiple scales, and in relation to several different arenas of policy and practice. The contributors address shortcomings in the mainstream literature on governance within the discipline of political science. Individual chapters consider whether and how gender, racialized identity, and/or other axes of marginalization are visible within the conceptualizations and practices of governance under discussion- Creator

The politics of dress
This book examines how the politics of dress has been incorporated in constructions of nationhood in both Asia and the Americas, and reveals how politicians and political regimes (including tribal, revolutionary, authoritarian, colonial, and democratic) manipulate sumptuary practices in order to create national identities, to legitimise hierarchies of power or to build personal political identities. In tackling these broad themes over two centuries, the editors and contributors grapple with gender politics: in particular, how men and women’s dress reflect their political and economic position in the nation-states.- Creator

Women in the Mediterranean
The book addresses the challenges faced by women on the two shores of the Mediterranean. While in the European Union’s Mediterranean countries inequality is mostly linked to the social sphere and in particular refers to labour market dynamics, in the Middle East and Northern Africa (MENA) area the social and private spheres are blended and cultural and religious factors have a great impact on women autonomy and opportunities beyond the family perimeter. The chapters in this book were originally published in a special issue of the Journal of the Balkans and Near Eastern Studies.- Creator

Paid migrant domestic labour in a changing Europe
This book analyses the changing face of work, gender equality and citizenship in Europe. The book focuses on the discourses, social relations and political processes that surround paid domestic labour. It rethinks the relationship between this kind of employment, the formal and informal citizenship of migrant workers and their employers, and the cultural and political value of gender equality.- Creator

Borderlands in European gender studies
This collection depicts collisions between concepts and lived experiences, between academic feminism and political activism, between Western Europe as generalizable and Eastern Europe as the concrete Other. The contributions demonstrate the worth of feminist concepts for critical analysis, conceptualize resistance to multiple forms of oppression, and identify the implications of the decoupling of cultural and social feminist critique for the analysis of gender relations in a postsocialist space.- Creator

Remaking citizenship in multicultural Europe
This book offers an analysis of how women's movements have been remaking citizenship in multicultural Europe. Presenting the findings of a large scale, multi-disciplinary, cross-national feminist research project, FEMCIT, it develops an expanded, multi-dimensional understanding of citizenship as practice and experience. The book pays particular attention to processes of racialization and minoritization as they impact upon, and construct, citizenship and women's movements in contemporary Europe. The book develops answers to two vital questions – what difference have women's movements and feminism made to experiences and practices of citizenship, and how can we assess the state of citizenship in contemporary Europe from the perspective of women, particularly minoritized women?- Creator

Immigrant women workers in the neoliberal age
In this study, authorsrs focus on informal economies such as health care, domestic work, street vending, and the garment industry, where displaced women do often work. Because such informal labor markets are unregulated, many of these workers face abusive working conditions that are not reported for fear of job loss or deportation. In examining the complex dynamics of how immigrant women navigate political and economic uncertainties, this collection highlights the important role of citizenship status in defining immigrant women's opportunities, wages, and labor conditions.- Creator

Revisiting gendered states
This volume theorizes the modern state and its intricate relationship to security, identity politics and gender, including scholars from International Relations (IR), Postcolonial Studies and Development Studies. First it answers whether the concept of a 'gendered state' is generic or if some states are particularly gendered in their identities and interests and with what implications for the type of citizenship, society and international security. Second it looks at the theoretical significance of the gendered state for current IR scholarship. Finally it explains to what extent postcolonial states are distinctive from metropolitan states with regard to gender. .- Creator

Sisters
This volume explores the characteristics, backgrounds and effects of the collective perceptions of Anabaptist/Mennonite women, as well as their self-understanding, from the sixteenth into the nineteenth centuries, in a variety of case studies. This is not a gender study in the traditional sense. The theory of imagology sets the stage for the interpretation of the image of the European Mennonite sisters, acting within their religious, moral, cultural and social landscapes of Austria, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Switzerland, and the Ukraine (tsarist Russia).- Creator
