The Gender Question in Globalization (eBook, PDF)

Changing Perspectives and Practices
Redaktion: Davids, Tine

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Orthodox views of globalization assume that it has the same features and impact everywhere, regardless of context. This challenging and unique book scrutinizes the dynamics of each context on its own merits, including the agency of women and men, resulting in unexpected and groundbreaking insights into the variety of apparent differences, even in sometimes seemingly similar global processes.
