- Description
- The authors revisit women, first interviewed a decade earlier in Pamela Stone’s book 'Opting Out? Why Women Really Quit Careers and Head Home' about taking a career break of high-level jobs to raise children. They talk about the challenges when they return to work. Most succeed, but not in their former white-collar jobs due to the lack of flexibility in hours, but in lower-paid jobs in the gig economy or predominantly female nonprofit sector. An account of the consequences for women seeking to strike a work/life balance, how women can reinvent their careers, and the policy reforms needed in the upper strata of the labour market where patriarchy and capitalism operates.

- Description
- This publication introduces readers to some of the dramatic shifts that have taken place in Chinese sexual behaviours and attitudes, and public discussions of sex, since the 1980s. The book explores what it means to talk about ‘sex’ in present-day China, where sex and sexuality are more and more visible in everyday life. The authors situate China’s changing sexual culture, and how it is governed, in the socio-political history of the People’s Republic of China. Chapters focus on sex studies, marriage and family planning, youth and sex(iness), gay, lesbian and queer discourses and identities, commercial sex: and HIV/AIDS.

- Description
- History of the UK Women's Liberation Movement. Oral history testimonies power the work, tracing the arc of a feminist life from 1950s girlhoods to late life activism today. The author uses oral history as creative method, making significant use of ‘Sisterhood and After: The Women's Liberation Oral History Project’ to animate still-unresolved controversies of race, class, sexuality, disability, and feminist identity. She provides insight into iconic actions including the Miss World Protest, the fight to protect abortion rights, and the peace protest at Greenham Common. She also explores men's violence and today's demands for trans-liberation as areas of continuing feminist concern.

- Description
- Aan de hand van foto’s en interviews met leden van verschillende generaties, schetst deze studie een beeld van de manier waarop Marokkaanse migranten in Nederland met kleding omgingen tussen 1965 en 2010. Dat kleedgedrag blijkt veel te zeggen over hun integratie, de manier waarop zij zich identificeren en hun maatschappelijke positie. De context waarin zij bepaalde kleding dragen speelt een belangrijke rol, maar ook sekserollen, leeftijd, herkomstgebied en een veranderend modeaanbod. De veelbesproken kleding van moslimmigranten wordt in een historisch kader geplaatst. Marokkaanse jongeren verbazen zich over het vrije kleedgedrag van hun ouders in de jaren zestig en zeventig. Zelf zijn ze zeer bewust bezig met hun kleding en hechten daarbij aan de voorschriften die hun godsdienst stelt. Verschillen hun kledingkeuzes wezenlijk van die van hun ouders? Aan de hand van foto’s, en interviews met leden van de verschillende generaties, schetst deze studie een beeld van de ontwikkeling van het kleedgedrag van Marokkaanse migranten in Nederland in de periode 1965-2010.

- Description
- This study takes a wide-angle, comparative lens to the lives of men – as sons and husbands and fathers, at home and at work, in public and private life – to better understand how they see their positions as men, and their attitudes and actions toward gender equality in the Middle East and North Africa. Equally important are women’s perspectives on these same issues. Its wealth of quantitative and qualitative findings complements a growing body of research on men and masculinities in the MENA region.
