Patti Duncan

Mothering in East Asian Communities;politics and Practices

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In Mothering in East Asian Communities, Duncan and Wong seamlessly rupture a homogenous identity category?that of the ?tiger mom.? The editors invoke the works of diverse contributors who critically challenge essentialized identity cat- egories and racialized and sexualized experiences of women of color within the institution of motherhood and practices of mothering. Here, the edited volume grapples with globalization, transnationalism, and capitalism with an East Asian ethnoracial-cultural context. Duncan and Wong offer a personal and political analysis of motherhood that is socially and culturally constructed, shaped by race, class, culture, sexuality, and other social categories.
