- Description
- In this anniversary edition to celebrate the 35th jubilee of LOVA the focus is on etnographies of gender and the body. Irma Beusink presented a paper at he LOVA conference in Amsterdam, July 2014, using metaphors to analyze differences within feminisms and their translations into the governmental policies and political statements of indigenous women's organizations in Bolivia. Breast cancer is the second most frequent cancer in the world and a mastectomy is the main method of treatment. Mastectomized women must reconstruct the way that they express their femininity and the symbols that identify them. In El Salvador significant changes in social life have occurred due to the levels of violence that the maras, or transnational street gangs, have generated. How adolescent women living in mara-controlled territories associate themselves with the maras and how their associations impact their sexuality and life strategy choices are discussed by Edith Yesenia Pena Sánches en Mónica Paola Zúniga Escobar. Authors describe the corporeality of an ethnographic view of morbid obesity, technoscience and identity by analyzing the story of a woman with morbid obesity in Mexico City. Anorexia nervosa as a health problem shows a prevalence of 0.5 to 5% in Mexico and it is mainly shown in adolescent and young adult women. In his paper Matthew W Maycock shows certain forms of competition and the denial of pain, both of which are integral to being rickshaw drivers, in light of their implications for masculine bodies and performances. The last 10 years has seen an increase in traditional bride abduction (ukuthwala) cases in South Africa. Recent cases share the common element of sexual violence of under-aged girls by much older men, or even groups of men. Diana Dubrovska takes a look at female sex tourism in the Caribbean and Latin America. In her paper Heather Tucker considers the contemporary Euro-American and European interests and outrage over the 'barbarity' of anti-homosexuality legislation in countries in Africa. Ourania Tsiakalou pays attention to the massive detentions of trans women that took place in Greece as well as some other instances of transphobia, as it was presented in the media and in the public sphere.

- Description
- 'This report presents the current situation and trends as regards women's and men's engagement in political, economic and social decision-making in the period from 2003 to 2014. It aims to highlight the gender gaps in leadership positions and to identify areas of decision-making where notable progress was made. The report provides a brief review of the EU policy context and research on factors that support or hinder women’s representation in decision-making. The analysis of data is based on the 18 indicators on political and economic decision-making endorsed by the Council in 1999, 2003 and 2008. The analysis is then extended to consider certain general trends in decision-making in other areas, such as academia and research institutions, media and sports organisations, where comparable data are available. It also presents examples of initiatives taken by the Member States to promote women’s participation in leadership positions.'

- Description
- '78 states worldwide continue to criminalise same-sex sexual behaviour, and due to the legal legacies of the British Empire, 42 of these – more than half – are in the Commonwealth of Nations. Lately many states have seen the emergence of new sexual nationalisms, leading to increased enforcement of colonial sodomy laws against men, new criminalisations of sex between women and discrimination against transgender people. This publication challenges these developments as the first publication to focus on experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) and all non-heterosexual people in the Commonwealth and offers the most internationally extensive analysis to date of the global struggle for decriminalisation of same-sex sexual behaviour and relationships.'

- Description
- 'Beelden' over de islam uit het verleden speelden in Nederland steeds een belangrijke rol. In de loop van de eeuwen heeft de islam in de Nederlandse beeldvorming allerlei gedaanten aangenomen: er is sprake geweest van duivels heidendom, ketterse religie, achterlijke moslims, een zinnelijke profeet, maar ook van 'sporen van goddelijk licht' en 'kinderen van Abraham', met wie een dialoog tot stand moet komen of die zich zelfs via een eigen zuil moeten emanciperen. Zo is er ook een traditie van een exotische en erotische verbeelding van de islam geweest, geïnspireerd door Duizend-en-één-nacht: viriele Arabieren, romantische soeks en verleidelijke haremvrouwen. Vanaf de jaren '90 zien we een nieuw, angstaanjagend beeld van de islam opdoemen.

- 'This report has attempted to give voice to grassroots women in the complex political and consensus building process that will result in the post-2015 development framework. In doing this ACORD aims to ensure that women’s contributions form the basis of the recommendations and resolutions that will be adopted on gender equality and women’s empowerment. While a number of the grassroots voices portray women as victims, other voices captured herein espouse women’s agency. For ACORD, this balance is very important in the debate on women’s empowerment. The reality of many grassroots women is indeed that of inhibited freedoms. Conceptually, our argument is that women’s demonstrated capacities to lead and make decisions is the basis on which they should be supported as power-dispensers and decision makers at all levels.'

- Political parties can make or break women's attempts to stand for political office.This book nvestigates this problem, bringing together insights from feminist and new institutional theory to explore and understand the gendered dynamics of institutional innovation and change in candidate selection and recruitment. Drawing on an original empirical case study of candidate selection in post-devolution Scotland, the book looks at the gendered dynamics of institutional design, continuity and change in the political recruitment process and illustrates the difficulties of reforming recruitment in the face of powerful institutional and gendered legacies.

- Description
- Goss examines how women's civic place has changed over the span of more than 120 years, how public policy has driven these changes, and why these changes matter for women and American democracy. Suffrage, which granted women the right to vote and invited their democratic participation, provided a dual platform for the expansion of women's policy agendas. As measured by women's groups' appearances before the U.S. Congress, women's collective political engagement continued to grow between 1920 and 1960—when many conventional accounts claim it declined—and declined after 1980, when it might have been expected to grow. .Goss suggests that ascriptive differences are not necessarily barriers to disadvantaged groups' capacity to be heard: that enhanced political inclusion does not necessarily lead to greater collective engagement: and that rights movements do not necessarily constitute the best way to understand the political participation of marginalized groups. She asks what women have gained—and perhaps lost—through expanded incorporation as well as whether single-sex organizations continue to matter in 21st-century America.

The book also connects this framework with the current situation of gender equality and explores the strength and weak points of the strategy. To do so, it provides a critical evaluation of the instruments used to measure gender equality and explores how societal aspects, such as the opportunity structure defined by work-family balance policies and practices, affect the individual values of gender equality supporting the development of gender egalitarian cultures. Further, it develops an outline of the current and future challenges of the gender mainstreaming strategy, that run in parallel with the general European Union’s challenges, such as the integration process, economic crisis, migration and refugees crisis, and the rise of right-wing Euroscepticism. In addition, the current problem of conceptualizing gender equality in different ways leading to jeopardized results.

- 'The study aims to analyze the representation of Muslim women in Dutch society. Using ethnicity, gender, and political thought (regarding feminism) it attempts to demonstrate the lived realities of Dutch Muslims in the Netherlands. The paper finds that all Dutch Muslims face some degree of discrimination by the state and are conflicted about what constitutes being Dutch.

- Description
- From the early-20th century onward, women have participated in state-to-state relations and decisions about when to pursue diplomacy or when to go to war to settle international conflicts. Particular women, as well as masculine and feminine gender role constructs, have also influenced the establishment and evolution of intergovernmental organizations and their political, social and economic policy making regimes and agencies. Additionally, feminists have critiqued male-dominated diplomatic establishment and intergovernmental organizations and have proposed alternative theories and practices.

- Description
- Until present women have received the message to deprioritize themselves. When women espouse discourses of self-interest and selfishness, they become illegible. This is complicated by the notion of the self in neoliberalism, which encourages a focus on self-fashioning that may not be identical with self-regard or self-interest. This book examines how revisiting the words and works of selfish women of modernity, such as Margareth Thatcher and Ayn Rand, can help in understanding individual and collective identities as women in contemporary culture. It draws on figures from French, American and English contexts as well as discourses from psychiatry, media and feminism.

- Description
- 'The Global Gender Gap Index presented in this Report seeks to measure one important aspect of gender equality—the relative gaps between women and men across four key areas: health, education, economy and politics. The Index was developed in part to address the need for a consistent and comprehensive measure for gender equality that can track a country’s progress over time. More than a decade of data has revealed that progress is still too slow for realizing the full potential of one half of humanity within our lifetimes. .The Index does not seek to set priorities for countries but rather to provide a comprehensive set of data and a clear method for tracking gaps on critical indicators so that countries may set priorities within their own economic, political and cultural contexts. The Index also points to potential role models by revealing those countries that—within their region or income group—are leaders in distributing resources more equitably between women and men, regardless of the overall level of available resources.'

- Description
- Auteur wil aantonen dat wettelijk opgelegde genderquota een effect kunnen afdwingen door de formulering van de quotamaatregelen nauwkeurig af te stemmen op de precieze modaliteiten van het kiesstelsel en dit onafhankelijk van het type kiesstelsel. De Belgische genderquotawetten van 1994 en van 2002 worden vergeleken met Franse en Argentijnse soortgelijke voorbeelden en daarbij wordt gekeken hoe zij inspelen op het kiesstelsel waarin zij van toepassing zijn.
