Gender and Social Capital (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: O'Neill, Brenda; Gidengil, Elisabeth

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The volume brings together a stellar group of contributors who examine the social capital thesis by means of four different approaches: theoretical, historical, comparative, and empirical. In the end, this book will serve to answer two fundamental questions which have hitherto been neglected: What can a gendered analysis tell us about social capital? And what can social capital tell us about women and politics?
