Gender and Cosmopolitanism in Europe

A Feminist Perspective

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Gender and Cosmopolitanism in Europe combines a feminist critique of contemporary and prominent approaches to cosmopolitanism with an in-depth analysis of historical cosmopolitanism and the manner in which gendered symbolic boundaries of national political communities in two European countries are drawn. Exploring the work of prominent scholars of new cosmopolitanism in Britain and Germany, including Held, Habermas, Beck and Bhabha, Gender and Cosmopolitanism in Europe delivers a timely intervention into current debates on globalization, Europeanization and social processes of transformation in and beyond specific national societies.
