"Once again, this is the place to begin if you are organizing a course on gender and world politics."
--Craig N. Murphy, Wellesley College



Kurzbeschreibung

Global Gender Issues in the New Millennium connects the inequalities between and among women and men with the world politics of global governance, security, political economy, and ecology. Through historical, theoretical, and empirical analysis, the authors alert us to gendered divisions of power, violence, labor and resources, as well as the power of gender as a meta-lens that keeps gender, race, class, sexual, and national divisions in place, despite some re-positionings of some women and men on the world political stage. In this completely new edition, which reflects significant advances in feminist international relations and transnational feminist scholarship, the authors apply intersectional analysis to global governance, militarization, global economic restructuring, and environmental degradation. They explore how crises of representation, insecurity, and sustainability have widened and deepenedparticularly in the post-9/11 periodwhile at the same time global gender policymaking (quotas, gender mainstreaming, and the advancing of womens human rights) has increased. The authors focus on this apparent contradictionthe higher level of attention to gender and womens human rights in a time of fierce militarization, savage economic inequality, and ecological crisisbut also address how the power of gender, as a meta-lens that orders world politics, can be deconstructed to rethink identities, ideologies, structures, and policies that rest upon gendered processes of imperialism, neoliberalism, racialization, and sexualization. The book emphasizes how hard-won attention to gender equality in world affairs can be co-opted when gender is used to justify or mystify unjust global governance, global security, and global political economy, but at the same time sees promise in coalitional struggles to re-radicalize feminist world political demands to change the downward conditions of women, men, children, and the planet. Thus, the authors also examine the challenges of forging transnational solidarities to de-gender world politics, scholarship, and practice through renewed politics of representation and redistribution.

Very good book 24. November 2010
Von S. Lee - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
Useful as a text in both IR and Women's and Gender study courses at the advanced undergraduate level. Excellent overview of important topics, including the impact of neoliberal globalization on women (and men) and militarization.

Not my choice 17. Oktober 2011
Von Zac - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
After reading this book for a course on gender studies I have to say that it is not what I was expecting. The text is poorly organized and often times repeats its self to the point that reading it becomes more than a chore. Sentence structure resembles a student trying to reach a certain page length of an assignment by being overly descriptive and long-winded. The examples of studies provided are followed up by biased remarks in parenthesis such as "women are just as inclined to particiapte politically as men are (if not more)". There is some good information provided in the chapters after sifting through the rest of the filler. All in all I would not recommend this book for a class or a personal read.

war has been good for US gender rights 16. Oktober 2009
Von W Boudville - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
The book shows the persistence of gender based stereotypes across many nations. The oneness is the similarity of these, where invariably women are associated with and often confined to family nurturing roles, with few alternatives for formal employment in a workforce.

There is an interesting discussion of women in the military; not confined to the United States. The authors point out that there has been a long history of women being in the armed forces; though often relegated to subsidiary roles. The narrative looks at how the use of a military, including in the "global war on terror", might have been used to reinforce traditional roles.

Ironically, there seems no airing of how at least in the US, the last 8 years of war helped vastly expand female participation in the US armed forces, and in the acceptance of this by an overwhelmingly male officer corp. Plus, more generally, in the acceptance by the US electorate. In this respect, this war will have proved pivotal in expanding female civil rights in the military.
