- Description
- Nearly one billion people, one-sixt of the worlds population have little or no schooling, and women and girls comprise nearly two-thirds of this total. This book provides an analysis of the historical, sociological, political and philosophical issues involved and examines actions taken by governments, inter-government organisations, NGOs and women's groups since 1990 to combat this injustice. The first part of the book provides a background to the history of the provision of schooling for girls worldwide since 1945 and locates the challenges of gender inequality in education. The second part examines different views as to why questions of gender and schooling should be addressed globally, contrasting arguments based on human capital theorie, tights and capabilities. The third part analyses how policies are implemented.

- Description
- In this book Traister makes sense of a moment in American history that changed the country : the presidential election of 2008. Hillary Clinton’s improbable rise, her fall and her insistence on pushing forward straight through to her remarkable phoenix flight from the race: Sarah Palin’s attempt not only to fill the void left by Clinton, but to alter the very definition of feminism and claim some version of it for conservatives: liberal rapture over Barack Obama and the historic election of the first African-American president: the media microscope trained on Michelle Obama, harsher even than the one Hillary had endured fifteen years earlier. Meanwhile, media women like Katie Couric and Rachel Maddow altered the course of the election. What did all this mean to the millions of people who were glued to their TV sets, and for the country, its history and its future? As Traister sees it, the 2008 election was good for women. The campaign for the presidency reopened some of the most fraught American conversations—about gender, race and generational difference, about sexism on the left and feminism on the right—difficult discussions that had been left unfinished but that are crucial to further perfecting our union. The election was also shaped the perspectives of American women and men from different generations and backgrounds, altering the way that all of us will approach questions of women and power far into the future. When Clinton cried, when Palin reached for her newborn at the end of a vice presidential debate, the whole country was watching women’s history—American history—being made.

- Description
- This thesis describes the development and evaluation of a theory and evidence based intervention program to promote safer sex practices in African-Caribbean minority groups in the Netherlands. The program is aimed at women with the purpose to empower them by letting them discuss relationship status, sexuality, negotiation with partners, risks of unsafe sex, and teenage and unwanted pregnancies. With the aid of health educators and hostesses from the peer groups women were recruited to come to home-parties to take part in the discussions.

- Description
- The authors provides feminist analyses of a recession-era media culture characterized by the reemergence and refashioning of familiar gender tropes, including crisis masculinity, coping women, and postfeminist self-renewal. Interpreting media forms as diverse as reality television, financial journalism, novels, lifestyle blogs, popular cinema, and advertising, the contributors reveal gendered narratives that recur across media forms too often considered in isolation from one another. They also show how, with a few notable exceptions, recession-era popular culture promotes affective normalcy and transformative individual enterprise under duress while avoiding meaningful critique of the privileged white male or the destructive aspects of Western capitalism. By acknowledging the contradictions between political rhetoric and popular culture, and between diverse screen fantasies and lived realities.
