Through case studies and interview data from across the globe we see how intersectionality and inequality are contextualized shaping womens agencies, gender relations, identity, the politics of belonging, power structures, institutional arrangements, and empowerment (self and/or collective) in local communities and cultures influenced by transnational and global networks and processes. Those who experience inequality, the politics of exclusion and social injustice by virtue of gender, ethnicity and/or class and other differences are the most vulnerable in the face of new adversities, including those that occur in response to globalization. Broader theoretical and methodological contexts for these nation- and region-specific studies are provided in essays by leading gender theorists. Divisions of labor, migration, war and peace-building are among the specific topics addressed in papers from China, India, Israel, Korea, Northern Ireland, Turkey, and the United States.Advances in gender research ;v. 15.Social ScienceGender StudiesbisacshSocial ScienceFeminism & Feminist TheorybisacshSocial ScienceGeneralbisacshGender studies, gender groupsbicsscSociologybicsscSex discriminationCongressesSocial ScienceGender Studies.Social ScienceFeminism & Feminist Theory.Social ScienceGeneral.Gender studies, gender groups.Sociology.Sex discrimination305.3Chow Esther Ngan-ling1943-1647122Segal Marcia Texler1940-1623152Tan Lin1157827UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910817507003321Analyzing gender, intersectionality, and multiple inequalities4073093UNINA
