- Description
- Interdisciplinaire introductie op vrouwenstudies waarin de belangrijkste debatten en theorieën aan de orde komen. Elk hoofdstuk wordt beloten met een aantal vragen en een literatuurlijst. In deel 1 'The social organization of gender relations' wordt ingegaan op de manier waarop sekseongelijkheid is geïnstitutionaliseerd. Onderzoek is gedaan naar gezin, romantische liefde, betaalde arbeid, opvoeding en religie als sociale instituties die worden gezien als fundamenteel voor de maatschappij, de vraag is hoe vrouwen door de organisatie van sekserelaties in deze instituties zijn beïnvloed. In deel 2 'The cultural representation of women' wordt ingegaan op: strategieën in verband met vrouwelijke representatie in literatuur, visuele kunst en film, stereotypering in autobiografieën, voorstellingen van vrouwen in de Christelijke traditie, ook wordt aandacht besteed aan ras en sekse. In deel 3 'Gender and social identity' worden populaire constructies onderzocht van 'vrouwelijke' identiteit. Ingegaan wordt op de betekenis van moederschap en feministische antwoorden op het vrouw-zijn en moederschap, de filosofische implicaties van veronderstelde moederlijke eigenschappen, de geschiedenis van lesbianisme, het begrip vrouw in de Engelse wet, de kritiek van zwarte feministen op witte vrouwen, verschillende interpretaties van vrouw-zijn in de islam. In deel 4 'Women and political change' wordt ingegaan op hoe de situatie van vrouwen veranderd kan worden, aandacht voor de Britse vrouwenbeweging in de 19e en 20e eeuw, het feminisme nu, de vrouwenbeweging in Latijns-Amerika, en het contrast tussen de actieve politieke deelname aan de regering in Engeland en de alternatieve wereld van ecofeminisme.

- Description
- The goal of the Bank's Women in Development (WID) Policy is to improve the socio-economic situation of women in Latin America and the Caribbean, and to improve the performance of Bank projects by enhancing women's contributions. To achieve these goals, the 1991 WID Action Plan developed an integrative strategy, whereby gender issues would be incorporated into all Bank operations to promote the equal participation of women in project activities, and to ensure that women, as well as men, benefit from these projects. This study contains background information on women in the Latin American and Caribbean workforce, issues, lessons learned and recommendations regarding women's participation in training programs and finally addressing gender issues throughout the project cycle.
