- 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
- Themanummer waarin de auteurs de categorieën sekse, ras en etniciteit opvatten als geconstrueerde identiteiten en nagaan op welke wijze ze tot stand komen binnen bepaalde historische, sociale en politieke contexten en (eventueel) wat daarvan de gevolgen zijn voor vrouwen en mannen. Na een toelichting op het onderwerp volgt een analyse van de probleemdefinitie waarop het Nederlandse overheidsbeleid t.b.v. vrouwen uit minderheidsgroepen gebaseerd is: een verslag van groepsgesprekken met moeders van verschillende etnische herkomst en afkomstig uit zogenoemde 'achterstandswijken' in Rotterdam om hun zelfdefinitie te bepalen: bespreking van verschillende studies naar het seksuele gedrag van allochtone mannen. Het nummer wordt afgesloten met boekbesprekingen.

- Description
- De auteur beschrijft hoe de Boliviaanse overheid beelden van vrouwelijkheid gebruikt in haar streven naar een etnisch en cultureel homogene samenleving. Ze analyseert enerzijds hoe op het gebied van mode, moederschap, gezinsleven, hygiene en honger een dominante, racistische ideologie van vrouwelijkheid gepromoot wordt: anderzijds laat ze zien hoe m.n. de inheemse bevolking zich verzet tegen deze modernisering.

- Description
- This book focuses on gender issues to tackle important questions such as: What are women and men symbols of and how is gender constructed in policy discourse? It studies what functions symbolic representation fulfils in the construction of gender, what social roles get legitimized in policy discourse, and how this affects power constellations.The authors draw on theories of symbolic representation and gender, as well as primary material about political debates on labour and care issues, partnership and reproductive rights, gender violence, and quotas. The authors show that reconsidering symbolic representation from a discursive perspective makes explicit issues of (in)equality embedded within particular constructions, as well as their consequences for political representation and gender equality.

- Description
- Addresses how sexual practices and identities are imagined and regulated through development discourses and within institutions of global governance, such as the World Bank. The argument is made that the so called development industry plays a central role in constructing people’s sexual lives, access to citizenship, and struggles for livelihood. Despite its insistence on viewing sexuality as basically outside the realm of economic modernization and anti-poverty programs, the authors argue that there is a heterosexual bias.

- Description
- Focusing on Asian women's experience of immigration, the authors describe the gendered dimension of migration, the different experiences of men to women and the subsequent consequences for women within the constraints of the root culture and the strategies deployed to make life more bearable in the host country. The central argument is that immigrant women are unable to completely break away from the chains of traditional patriarchal norms, imposed by either their host country or root culture.

- Description
- This book integrates the role of gender in girls' and women's development across the life span, looking specifically at internal and external vulnerabilities and risks, and the protective or supportive factors that facilitate effective coping, positive growth, strength and resilience. The interaction between physical, psychological, and cultural factors is integrated within each period of development. The book emphasizes how gender socialization of female development and behavior impacts self-evaluation and identity processes within various cultural groups. The authors also discusses the social roles that girls and women reflectively adopt and describe how externally induced risks such as poverty, interpersonal abuse, and violence influence a healthy development.

- Description
- Erkenning van het recht om uiting te geven aan culturele identiteit is sinds het einde van de jaren zeventig een van de uitgangspunten van het minderhedenbeleid van de Nederlandse overheid. In dezestudie wordt de morele rechtvaardiging van dit uitgangspunt onderzocht. Centraal staat daarin de vraag of het mogelijk is om een adequate rechtvaardiging van de erkenning van culturele identiteit in termen van een liberale moraal te geven. Aandacht voor het multiculturalisme-debat in de politieke filosofie en de theorieën van John Rawls, Charles Larmore, Will Kymlicka, Bert Musschenga en Joseph Raz.
