Governance Feminism: An Introduction shows how some feminists and feminist ideas--but by no means all--have entered into state and state-like power in recent years. Being a feminist can qualify you for a job in the United Nations, the World Bank, the International Criminal Court, the local prosecutor's office, or the child welfare bureaucracy. Feminists have built institutions and participate in governance. The authors argue that governance feminism is institutionally diverse and globally distributed. It emerges from grassroots activism as well as statutes and treaties, as crime control and as immanent bureaucracy. Conflicts among feminists--global North and South; left, center, and right--emerge as struggles over governance. This volume collects examples from the United States, Israel, India, and from transnational human rights law. Governance feminism poses new challenges for feminists: How shall we assess our successes and failures? What responsibility do we shoulder for the outcomes of our work? For the compromises and strange bedfellows we took on along the way?   Can feminism foster a critique of its own successes? This volume offers a pathway to critical engagement with these pressing and significant questions. 606 $aFeminism$xPolitical aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aFeminism$xPolitical aspects. 676 $a320.5622 700 $aHalley$b Janet E.$f1952-$01864590 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958375103321 996 $aGovernance Feminism$94471444 997 $aUNINA
