Handbook on the International Political Economy of Gender by Elias, Juanita; Roberts, Adrienne;

Hosszú leírás:

This comprehensive Handbook’ showcases the burgeoning and cutting edge research that has come to constitute the study of gender and International Political Economy (IPE). It surveys the diversity of contemporary feminist IPE research, exploring a range of different theoretical and methodological traditions and reviewing the broad empirical scope of this research. The Handbook also critically interrogates the intersections and points of tension between the different disciplines that have inspired contemporary approaches.

Expert contributors offer insights into how to the categories of ‘masculine’ and ‘feminine’ have been established and maintained globally, while also documenting and challenging the privileging of the former over the latter in different sites and spaces. They further show how gender power relations are shaped by race, nationality, sexuality, class, and more. The Handbook explores and demonstrates how gender operates as a relation of social power in the global political economy.

The Handbook on the International Political Economy of Gender’ will appeal to undergraduate and post-graduate students of politics and international relations, security studies, development studies, economics, and gender and queer studies, as well as policymakers and practitioners interested in issues of global (in)equality and development.

This Handbook brings together leading interdisciplinary scholarship on the gendered nature of the international political economy. Spanning a wide range of theoretical traditions and empirical foci, it explores the multifaceted ways in which gender relations constitute and are shaped by global politico-economic processes. It further interrogates the gendered ideologies and discourses that underpin everyday practices from the local to the global. The chapters in this collection identify, analyse, critique and challenge gender-based inequalities, whilst also highlighting the intersectional nature of gendered oppressions in the contemporary world order.

’In their Handbook of the International Political Economy of Gender, Juanita Elias and Adrienne Roberts offer a collection that not only provides an overview of the "state of the art" in ongoing IPE gender studies debates, but also highlights avenues for theoretical advance and future research. In addition to offering incisive critiques of conventional IPE approaches, this collection highlights the diversity of Feminist IPE perspectives themselves, across disciplinary, theoretical and subfield divides - and so stands to advance gendered IPE analyses specifically, and IPE debates more generally across, our entire field.’
