This volume provides an overview of this dynamic and growing field, which reflects both its expanding empirical scope and the accompanying theoretical development and debate. The first three essays focus primarily on conceptual and theoretical issues: the meaning of 'gender'; the state's role in the construction of gender within the public and private sphere; and the political representation of gender differences within liberal democracy. The remaining six provide analyses of more concrete issues of state policy and participation in differeing national political contexts: abortion politics in Ireland; the local politics of prostitution in Britain, the impact on women's political participation of economic change in China, Latin America and political change in Russia, and the gender impact of state programmes of land reform. 606 $aWomen$xPolitical activity 606 $aFeminism 606 $aWomen$xGovernment policy 615 0$aWomen$xPolitical activity. 615 0$aFeminism. 615 0$aWomen$xGovernment policy. 676 $a320/.082 701 $aRandall$b Vicky$0572753 701 $aWaylen$b Georgina$01640197 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910952263003321 996 $aGender, politics and the state$94491973 997 $aUNINA
