- Description
- Women represent a slight majority of Quebec's population, yet they continue to occupy a minority of seats in its National Assembly and in Canada's House of Commons and Senate. To explain why this is the author examines Quebec women's political engagements from 1791 to the present. She traces the path that led to women obtaining the rights to vote and run for office and then draws on statistics and interviews with female politicians to paint an indepth portrait of women's underrepresentation and its main causes. Her account not only documents the democratic deficit in Canada's parliamentary systems, it also outlines strategies to improve women's access to legislative representation in Canada and elsewhere.

- Description
- This book analyses the literary production of Irene Némirovsky (1903-1942) literary production in its relationship to the literary and cultural context of the inter-war period in France. It examines topics of central importance to our understanding of the literary field in France in the period, such as the close relationship between politics and literature: the historical, political, cultural and personal legacies of the First World War: the so-called ‘crisis of the novel’ and the attempt to create and develop new narrative forms: the phenomenon of Russian emigration to Paris in the wake of the Russian Revolution and Civil War: the possibilities for the creation of a French-Jewish identity and mode of writing: and the threat of fascism and the approach of the Second World War.

- Description
- This publication adresses questions like “What does the study of Plato’s dialogues tell us about the modern meaning of ‘sex’?” And “How can recent developments in the philosophy of sex and gender help us read these ancient texts anew?” Each chapter demonstrates how the modern reception of Plato’s works - in both mainstream and feminist philosophy and psychoanalytical theory - has presupposed a ‘natural-biological’ conception of what sex might mean. Critical readings of the theories of sex and sexuation in Freud and Lacan are included.
