Against this background, Beauty and the Norm assembles ethnographic and conceptual approaches from a variety of disciplines and across the globe to debate standardization in bodily appearance. Its contributions range from empirical research to exploratory conversations between scholars and personal reflections. Bridging hitherto separate debates in critical beauty studies, cultural anthropology, sociology, the history of science, disability studies, gender studies, and critical race studies, this volume reflects upon the gendered, classed, and racialized body, normative regimes of representation, and the global beauty economy. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Globalization and Embodiment,$x2945-7769 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aRace 606 $aHuman body$xSocial aspects 606 $aMass media 606 $aSex 606 $aCultural Studies 606 $aRace and Ethnicity Studies 606 $aSociology of the Body 606 $aMedia Sociology 606 $aGender Studies 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aRace. 615 0$aHuman body$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aMass media. 615 0$aSex. 615 14$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aRace and Ethnicity Studies. 615 24$aSociology of the Body. 615 24$aMedia Sociology. 615 24$aGender Studies. 676 $a646.7042 702 $aLiebelt$b Claudia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBöllinger$b Sarah$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aVierke$b Ulf$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337729603321 996 $aBeauty and the Norm$92518222 997 $aUNINA
