- Description
- The authors reflect on questions such as: How can a institute such as the IIAV make optimal use of new media? Whose histories are represented in its archives? How can it continue to combine the three core elements of its mission statement – that is, preserving heritage, contributing to women’s empowerment, and adopting an academic orientation and producing knowledge – in an environment that is calling for specialization? They describe perspectives on documenting women’s histories, developments at the IIAV since it was established and the IIAV’s approaches to contemporary issues and how the institute is preparing for the future.

- Description
- The idea that emotions have an intelligent core (and the reverse, that intelligence has an emotional core) comes from the neurosciences and psychology. Similarly, the fundamental sexualization of the brain—the new interest in 'essential differences' in male and female brains and behaviors—is based on neuroscience research and neuroimages of emotions. In this book scholars from different disciplines reflect on the epistemological claims that emotional intelligence can be located in the brain and that it is legitimate to attribute distinct kinds of emotions to the biological sexes. The brain has colonized the humanities and social sciences, leading to the emergence of such new disciplines as neurosociology, neuroeconomics, and neurophilosophy. Neuroscience and psychology now have the power to transform not only the practice of science but also contemporary society. These developments, the essays in this volume show, will soon affect the very heart of gender studies.

- Description
- Study of social and political life must attend to gender as a category of analysis. This book explores the gendered dimensions of a central organizing unit in social and political science: the nation-state. Contributors rescue gender from the margins of theoretical discussions on the nation, the state, public policy, and citizenship by bringing the insights of feminist analysis to bear on three relationships central to popular and policy discussions in contemporary Canada and other countries: gender and nation, gender and state processes, and gender and citizenship. The book employs a comparative framework and builds upon three decades of work in the multidisciplinary areas of women's studies, gender and politics, and political science.
