- Verslag van een secundaire analyse op de gegevens van het longitudinale onderzoek 'Van jaar tot jaar', waarin de loopbanen tot 35 jaar gevolgd zijn van mannen en vrouwen die in 1965 het basisonderwijs verlieten. Nagegaan is wat de gezamenlijke en onderscheiden invloed is van het beroepsniveau van de vader, de arbeidssector van het beroep, de opleiding van de ouders, de samenstelling van het ouderlijk gezin en de houdingen van de ouders op de loopbaan van de kinderen en hoe die invloed tot stand komt. Uit de resultaten blijkt dat de opleiding en het beroep van de ouders de levensloop van hun kinderen voor een belangrijk deel bepalen.

Studie over het zendingswerk van de Herrnhutters in Suriname, bestudeerd vanuit het 'gender perspectief', waarbij de verhoudingen tussen mannen en vrouwen centraal staan. Naast het blootleggen van machtsrelaties tussen de seksen wordt getoond hoe gender relaties nauw verweven zijn met onderdrukkingssystemen die gebaseerd zijn op klasse of ras, en tevens wordt aangegeven hoe veranderingen in machtsrelaties niet voor alle leden van een zelfde sekse dezelfde gevolgen hoeven te hebben.

It examines the discourse of these publications and the ways in which 'whites,' 'blacks,' and 'Jews' are constructed within that discourse.

- Description
- This study explores the meaning of class to women's liberationists' identities and activism, both nationally and regionally, using a previously neglected feminist cluster in North East England as a case study. Stevenson demonstrates that British feminism was shaped fundamentally by its relationship to class politics. Feminists recognised how post-war changes in the economy and gender roles were reshaping class and the Women's Liberation Movement attempted to remake class politics in response. However, class differences between the women involved, linked to occupation, education and background, remained intractable obstacles causing tensions within groups, fragmentations into specific class-based groups and the ultimate failure of the movement to coalesce into a coherent coalition with labour politics, despite great levels of solidarity around particular struggles.

- Description
- This book is based on over 100 oral histories gathered from women from a variety of racial, ethnic, and geographical backgrounds. Buss analyzes this body of work, identifying common themes in women's lives and resistance that unite the oral histories she has gathered. From the beginning, her work has shed light on the inseparable, compounding effects of gender, race, ethnicity, and class on women's lives, what is now commonly called intersectionality. The book is structured thematically, with each chapter analyzing a concept that runs through the oral histories, e.g., agency, activism, religion.

- Description
- History of the UK Women's Liberation Movement. Oral history testimonies power the work, tracing the arc of a feminist life from 1950s girlhoods to late life activism today. The author uses oral history as creative method, making significant use of ‘Sisterhood and After: The Women's Liberation Oral History Project’ to animate still-unresolved controversies of race, class, sexuality, disability, and feminist identity. She provides insight into iconic actions including the Miss World Protest, the fight to protect abortion rights, and the peace protest at Greenham Common. She also explores men's violence and today's demands for trans-liberation as areas of continuing feminist concern.

- ITS bracht de ontwikkelingen in de schoolloopbanen van jongens en meisjes in Nederland en in een aantal andere Westerse landen in dit rapport in kaart, vanaf de voor- en vroegschoolse periode tot en met de universiteit. In de afgelopen decennia is het onderwijsniveau in de meeste westerse landen toegenomen. De resultaten van de trendstudie wijzen uit dat deze ontwikkeling meer op het conto van vrouwen dan van mannen kan worden geschreven. Men zou kunnen spreken van een inhaalslag, met als gevolg dat in vrijwel alle bestudeerde landen meer vrouwen dan mannen deelnemen aan de hogere niveaus van het onderwijs. .In de laatste decennia is de onderwijspositie van de meisjes dus aanzienlijk verbeterd. Verschillen in onderwijsniveau en prestaties zijn tegenwoordig veel sterker gerelateerd aan de sociaal-economische status en etnische herkomst van leerlingen dan aan hun sekse. Tegelijkertijd laat de trendstudie zien dat er wel nog sprake is van hardnekkige sekseverschillen in studiekeuze. Gezien het internationale streven naar een kenniseconomie en de huidige tekorten op de arbeidsmarkt aan bètapersoneel is deze ongelijkheid momenteel vooral in het nadeel van de vrouwen.

- Description
- The essays in this book address the relationships between gender and the built environment, specifically architecture, in early modern Europe. In recent years scholars have begun to investigate the ways in which architecture plays a part in the construction of gendered identities. So far the debates have focused on the built environment of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries to the neglect of the early modern period. This book focuses on early modern Europe, a period decisive for our understanding of gender and sexuality. .Much excellent scholarship has enhanced our understanding of gender division in early modern Europe, but often this scholarship considers gender in isolation from other vital factors, especially social class. Central to the concerns of this book, therefore, is a consideration of the intersections of gender with social rank.

- Description
- Themes of embodiment and agency have long been central to feminist philosophical thought and have increasingly led feminists to extend their theorizing to encompass a range of identities shaped by processes of gender, race, class, disability, and sexuality. The intersection of these themes, however, has often been limited to analyzing how specific modes of socialized embodiment can be impediments to agency or autonomy. .This book brings together a range of theoretical perspectives and resources to the project in ways that stress possibilities as well as constraints. Contributors utilize phenomenology, psychoanalysis, care ethics, analytic philosophy, Hegelian critique, and postcolonial theory to examine embodiment and agency in contexts ranging from a child's struggle to find her own identity to global politics. Part I of this book explores how we become individually and collectively identified subjects through the possibilities for agency that arise from specific modes of embodiment. Part II continues the theme of embodied agency in contemporary sociopolitical contexts. It reconceptualizes the links between embodiment and moral agency in ways adequate to political realities, personal relationships, and collective responsibilities.

- The contributors to this book examine women and the construction of gender thematically, dealing with the areas of politics, law, religion, sexuality, literature and economics, and in a variety of social categories, from Christians and Moriscas, queens and merchants, peasants and visionaries, heretics and madwomen. The essays cover different regions in the Spanish monarchy, including Andalusia, Aragon, Castile, Catalonia, Valencia and Spanish America, from the fifteenth century through to the eighteenth century. The book focuses on two central themes: gender relations in the shaping of family and community life, and women's authority in spheres of power. The representation of women in a variety of texts such as poetry, court cases, or even account books illustrate the multifaceted world in which women lived, constantly choosing and negotiating their identities.

- Description
- The women who launched the radical second wave of the feminist movement believed in universal sisterhood and color-blind democracy. Their hopes, however, were soon dashed. To this day, the failure to create an .integrated movement remains a sensitive and contested issue. In this book Winifred Breines explores why a racially integrated women's liberation movement did not develop in the United States. .Drawing on flyers, letters, newspapers, journals, institutional records, and oral histories, Breines dissects how white and black women's participation in the movements of the 1960s led to the development of separate feminisms. Herself a participant in these events, Breines attempts to reconcile the explicit professions of anti-racism by white feminists with the accusations of mistreatment, ignorance, and neglect by African American feminists. Many radical white women, unable to see beyond their own experiences and idealism, often behaved in unconsciously or abstractly racist ways, despite their passionately anti-racist stance and hard work to develop an interracial movement. As Breines argues, however, white feminists' racism is not the only reason for the absence of an interracial feminist movement. Segregation, black women's interest in the Black Power movement, class differences, and the development of identity politics with an emphasis on 'difference' were all powerful factors that divided white and black women. By the late 1970s and early 1980s white feminists began to understand black feminism's call to include race and class in gender analyses, and black feminists began to give white feminists some credit for their political work. Despite early setbacks, white and black radical feminists eventually developed cross-racial feminist political projects.

- Why are women such prominent workers in the global marketplace? Why do so many perform jobs that involve carework? What political forces have made these women key participants in globalization? What are the consequences for the women themselves, for their families, and for societies and international relations in general? .This book offers an examination of globalization, examining the lives of the women at the center of these new global dynamics. Arguing that society is facing multiple crises of care, the authors develop a new framework for understanding the interplay of globalization, gender, and carework. In four original essays, they examine gender, race, and class inequality: migration, citizenship, and the politics of social control: the evolving meanings of motherhood: and new social definitions of carework and the personal transformation of careworkers. Excerpts from the classic works in the field as well as recent cutting-edge research studies support the examination of each of these growing global crises.

- This book provides the ethnography of how middle-class women in India understand and experience economic change through transformations of family life. It explores their ideas of marriage, childbirth, reproductive change and their children's education, and addresses the impact that globalization is having on the new middle-classes in Asia By focusing on maternity, the book explores subjective understandings of the way intimate relationships and the family are affected by India's liberalization policies. And by drawing attention to women's agency as wives, mothers and grandmothers within these new frameworks, 'Domestic Goddesses' discusses the experiences of different age groups affected by these changes.

- How are the ways that race organizes our lives related to the ways gender and class organize our lives? How might these organizing mechanisms conflict or work together? In this book the author likens race, class, and gender to foods – foods that are produced in fields, mixed together in bowls, and digested in our social and institutional bodies. In the field, one food may contaminate another through cross-pollination. In the mixing bowl, each food’s original molecular structure changes in the presence of others. And within a meal, the presence of one food may impede or facilitate the digestion of another. At each of these sites, the “foods” of race, class, and gender are involved in dynamic relationships with each other that have implications for the shape – or the taste – of our social order.

- Description
- This book explores the meanings and experiences of home among a group of lesbians who over the past five decades have sought to create alternative intimate and public living spaces. The meaning of home and domestic space emerges from life histories informed by the wider social and political context and moves from the earliest memories of their childhood kitchens to their contemporary domestic lives. The kitchen emerged as a tangle of cultural norms, customs, duties, ideas, aspirations, expectations and values that tells about the thinking process and behaviour of this group of older lesbians.

- After her first book was published journalist Megan Stack got pregnant and quit her job to write. She pictured herself pen in hand while the baby napped, but instead found herself traumatised by a difficult birth and shell-shocked by the start of motherhood. Living abroad provided her with access to affordable domestic labour, and, hiring a nanny gave her back the ability to work. At first she thought she had little in common with the women she hired. They were important to her because they made her free. When Pooja, an Indian nanny who had been absorbed into the family, disappeared one night with no explanation, Megan was forced to confront the truth: these women were not replaceable, and her life had become inextricably intertwined with theirs.

- Description
- Once fashion was seen as marginal. Now it entered into core economic discourse focused around ideas about ‘cultural’ and ‘creative’ work as a major driver of developed economies. This second edition gives a summary of the theories surrounding the role and function of fashion in modern society. Entwistle examines how fashion plays a crucial role in the formation of modern identity through its articulation of the body, gender and sexuality.The book offers a synthesis between the literature on fashion and dress and the sociology of the body. The book shows how an understanding of fashion and dress requires an understanding of the meanings acquired by the body in culture since it is the body that fashion speaks to and which is dressed in almost all social situations and encounters.

- Description
- Beginning in the 1990s large numbers of women from China and Southeast Asia married men in Taiwan. They now number over 400,000. Traditional ideas of marriage, such as the belief that a woman 'marries out' of her natal family to be dependent upon her husband and his family, and the idea that a man should 'marry down' to a woman of a lesser social and economic status, have not kept pace with changes in women's educational and career opportunities. How these relationships are formed, how they impact gendered understandings of women and men, how families are constituted and relationships developed, and how they affect the children of these families and their education, are the issues explored in this book.

- Description
- This book considers six authors who use experimental methods and negative modes of critique in their fiction and feminism. The authors covered are Valerie Solanas, Kathy Acker, Theresa Cha, Chantel Chawaf, Jeanette Winterson, and Lynda Barry. These writers share a commitment to combining extreme content with formally radical techniques in order to enact varieties of gender, sex, race, class and nation-based experience that, they suggest, may only be “represented” accurately through the experimental unmaking of dominant structures of rationality.
