Covering a wide range of themes and concerns, the volume gathers authors from different organizational backgrounds and academic disciplines, and includes chapters on such different cultural and geographical areas as China, Malaysia and Thailand, Mexico and the West Indies, Uganda, Malawi and Ghana, and Canadian Inuit and Indian communities. A unity of purpose as well as a call for a fundamental reconceptualization of society emerge from these varied voices. Women, Feminism and Development is structured to convey a feminist perspective for the construction of theoretical, methodological, and political approaches to development; a critical evaluation of the effect of development policies on women's lives and gender relations; and an understanding of the multiple strategies that can lead to the empowerment of women and real development.Femmes, féminisme et développementWomen in developmentCongressesWomenSocial conditionsCongressesFeminismInternational cooperationCongressesWomen in developmentWomenSocial conditionsFeminismInternational cooperation305.42Dagenais Huguette, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut856472Dagenais Huguette856472Piché Denise1947-1317336Canadian Research Institute for the Advancement of Women.Conference(1988 :Québec, Québec)Université Laval.Groupe de recherche et d'échange multidisciplinaires féministes.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782703203321Women, feminism, and development3697399UNINA
