- Description
- This book examines political participation, representation and legitimacy in the national parliaments of European Union countries. The book is organised around three major questions: what affects the presence of women in parliament?: does the number of women in parliament have an effect?: and are women in parliament representing women? A surprising result of the research is that relatively small groups of women can influence various aspects of the legislative process. Diaz researched different electoral systems, and concludes that the level of proportionality of the system influences the extent to which parliament and assemblies mirror their polulations, both socially and ideologically.

- Description
- After the collapse of the Sovjet Union and during the war with the Russian Federation many inhabitants of the republic of Tjetsenia asked themselves questions on their origins and identity. The result was a revival of traditional values in peoples attitudes to the history and culture of their country. Marit Cremer studied the social structure of Tjetsenian society, the social relationships of men and women, and their system of values. The book is based on an empirical study, performed in 2006, and on biographical-narrative interviews with five Tjetsnian women living in Germany.

- Description
- In this book the sociologist Patricia Hill Collins investigates the ways in which the feminist politics of women in the hip-hop generation signal a break from or continuation of earlier expressions of feminism by African American, Latina, and other groups of racial/ethnic women. In the final essays of the book she makes a case for anti-racist, group-based political struggles that respect individual rights and human rights: that embrace a global analysis of how our lives are all interconnected: and that are informed by the best of feminism and nationalism and not their troubling elements.

- Description
- In this collection of essays different perspectives are presented on the growing significance of fundamentalist religions and movements in the world. The relations between gender, religion and politics are studied in different cultural contexts. The religions and movements also have some aspects in common, like reinstatement of traditional gender roles and sexual ethics. Women are confirmed in the roles of wife and mother, and at the same time they take on an active role in the fundamentalist movements.

- Description
- The Victorian periodical press was a critical cultural site for the representation of competing gender ideologies. This book examines masculinities and femininities as defined and interrogated in these periodicals. It investigates readers , editors and journalists: and it considers the power of the press at home, in the domestic space, in metropolitan centres and at the margins of empire. The periodicals studied range from the 1830s to the fin the siècle. The study is informed by the theories and approaches of media and cultural studies and women's studies.

- Description
- This book offers a critique of the narrative equating secularism with modernity, reason, freedom, peace, and progress. Bringing together essays by scholars based in religious studies, gender and sexuality studies, history, science studies, anthropology and political science, the authors challenge the binary conception of 'conservative' religion versus 'progressive' secularism. The essays in this volume address secularism in different national, regional, and religious contexts. The countries studied are India, Iran, Turkey, Great Britain, China, and the United States. Several contributors explicitely take up the way feminism has been implicated in the dominant secularization story.
