- Description
- Volume about media representations and practices that have emerged out of contemporary wars. The author considers two questions: how the construction of gender, race and class in media are productive of regimes of truth regarding war and military life, and how such constructions may intensify militarism. By examining news and documentary media produced since September 11, 2001, she demonstrates that news narratives that include women use feminism selectively in gender equality narratives. They tend to reinforce historically resonant gender, race and class identity constructions.

Contributors analyse gender and fluctuations of power by concentrating on the reach of global media and its (re)working in local contexts. The book explores first, what is the role that global communications media play in constructing ideas about cultural identities in Asian contexts: second, how do media texts and the politics of consumption construct versions of a 'modern woman' in some Asian contexts: third, how do we define and interpret the feminine as understood in an Asian context.

- Practices of cosmetic surgery have grown exponentially in recent years in both over-developed and developing worlds. What comprises cosmetic surgery has also changed, with new procedures and an extraordinary rise of non-surgical operations. As the practices of cosmetic surgery have multiplied and diversified, so have feminist approaches to understanding them. In this volume leading feminist scholars including Susan Bordo, Kathy Davis, Vivian Sobchack and Kathryn Pauly Morgan, have been brought together to reveal the complexity of feminist engagements with the phenomenon that still remains popular among women.

- Description
- Since World War II, the biological and technological have been fusing and merging in new ways, resulting in the loss of a clear distinction between the two. As this process permeates more of everyday life, the urgent necessity arises to rethink both biology and technology. The human body can no longer be regarded either as a bounded entity or as a naturally given and distinct part of an unquestioned whole. This book assumes a posthuman definition of the body. It is grounded in questions about today's biocultures, which pertain neither to humanist bodily integrity nor to the anthropological assumption that human bodies are the only ones that matter. In exploring current reconfigurations of bodies and embodied subjects, the contributors pursue a technophilic path while articulating new and thoroughly appraised ethical standards.

- Description
- From the days of the fur trade through the contemporary period, women have played important roles in the public life of Canada. Until the 1970s, however, these contributions were generally overlooked. This book looks at the progress made in the last forty years to raise the profile of women's involvement in public life. .The contributors focus on two questions with reference to community activism, the politics of feminist organizing, parties and elections, and the communications environment in which politicians operate. First, are the doors to participation presently open wider than they were in the past? What obstacles as well as possibilities face specific groups of female citizens? Have patterns of media coverage shifted such that women can expect to engage in community groups and party organizations on something approaching an even playing field? Second, how can these doors be opened wider, both in terms of real-world participation and our scholarly understanding of public engagement? What remedies have been proposed? What research directions need to be pursued?

- From the bestselling Bridget Jones's Diary that started the trend to the television sensation Sex and the City that captured it on screen, 'chick lit' has become a major pop culture phenomenon. Banking on female audiences' identification with single, urban characters who struggle with the same life challenges, publishers have earned millions and even created separate imprints dedicated to the genre. Not surprisingly, some highbrow critics have dismissed chick lit as trashy fiction, but fans have argued that it is as empowering as it is entertaining. .The contributors in this volume explore the characteristics that cause readers to attach the moniker 'chick' to a particular book and what, if anything, distinguishes the category of chick lit from the works of Jane Austen on one end and Harlequin romance novels on the other. They critique the genre from a range of critical perspectives, considering its conflicted relationship with feminism and postfeminism, heterosexual romance, body image, and consumerism. The fourteen original essays gathered here also explore such trends and subgenres as 'Sistah Lit,' 'Mommy Lit,' and 'Chick Lit Jr.,' as well as regional variations.

- Description
- This collection brings feminist critique to bear on contemporary postfeminist mass media culture, analyzing phenomena ranging from action films featuring violent heroines to the “girling” of aging women in productions such as the movie Something’s Gotta Give and the British television series 10 Years Younger.This book broadly defines that feminism has accomplished its goals and is now a thing of the past. It presumes that women are unsatisfied with their legal and social equality and can find fulfillment only through practices of transformation and empowerment. Postfeminism is defined by class, age, and racial exclusions: it is youth-obsessed and white and middle-class by default. Anchored in consumption as a strategy and leisure as a site for the production of the self, postfeminist mass media assumes that the pleasures and lifestyles with which it is associated are somehow universally shared and, perhaps more significantly, universally accessible.

- Description
- Feminism is one of the most important perspectives from which visual culture has been theorized and historicized over the past forty years. Challenging the notion of feminism as a unified discourse, this second edition of The Feminism and Visual Culture Reader assembles 73 articles that address art, film, architecture, popular culture, new media and other visual fields from a feminist perspective. Articles are grouped into thematic sections, each of which is introduced by the editor. Providing a framework within which to understand the shifts in feminist thinking in visual studies, as well as an overview of major feminist theories of the visual, this reader also explores how issues of race, class, nationality, and sexuality enter into debates about feminism in the field of the visual.

The book shows how questions of gender and economics are inextricably linked to issues of power in Western capitalist societies. Integrating political economy and feminism, it offers an understanding of communication at the personal and institutional levels, and exposes the ways in which sex and money are sutured into individual's daily lives.

What do young women think about women's issues today? It is time to update what has happened in the women's world since the original volume was published. .Editor Gayle Kimball and other significant figures in the women's movement—such as Marge Piercy, Robin Morgan, and Judy Chicago—discuss these questions in chapters that address the visual arts and media, music, literature, religion, and politics. In this exploration of women's culture, these authors share their experiences and research at the dawn of the 21st century.

At a time of significant changes in women's lives entering a much larger but precarious world of female individualization, this collection explores such phenomena by critically incorporating the parameters of popular media culture into the overarching paradigm of gender relations, economics and politics of everyday life.

- Part I deals with the ‘East’/ ‘West’ divide in several spatial and political contexts and from different perspective and experiences: cultural, economic, access to resources, power relations, migration. Part II analyzes the gendered dimension of politics in Romania, Hungary, Poland, and Lithuania and shows the ways in which women’s positions and feminism are shaped by the post-socialist political, social and economic environment and by .the divisions and dissentions within the feminisms that developed in these countries during the ‘transition’ period and influenced by the ‘Western’ feminist discourses. The third part 'Gender Trouble’? Performing Lesbian Identities in .the ‘East' focuses on the ways in which ‘Western’ discourses of sexuality/ies shape and construct lesbian communities and identities in, chiefly, Albania, Russia and Romania. Part IV, 'Gender in the (New) Media: Queers, Dolls, Cyborgs, Monsters and Humans', concentrates on several media/popular culture discourses: advertising, television, video games. The articles analyze different ways and practices through which gender/ sexual identities are formed, reformed and fluidized by old and new media. The last part, 'Challenges of Approaching Gender: Political Theory, Multiculturalism and Epistemology,' deals with the relation between gender and political theories, difficulties of a gendered multiculturalism approach, and the challenges of feminist and/or humanist epistemology.

- Description
- The essays in this book challenge the knowledge about the fairy-tale heroine and offer new insights into the tales produced by female writers and storytellers. Exploring new texts and contexts, Fairy Tales and Feminism reaches out beyond the national and cultural boundaries that have limited our understanding of the fairy tale. Also considered within this volume is how film, television, advertising, and the Internet test the fairy tale's boundaries and its traditional authority in defining gender. .From the Middle Ages to the postmodern age—from the French fabliau to Hollywood's Ever After and television's Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire?—the essays assembled here cover a broad range of topics that map new territory for fairy-tale studies.
