  • Taylor & Francis Women Religion and the Body in South Asia

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisNoted for their haunting melodies and enigmatic lyrics, Bauls have been portrayed as spiritually enlightened troubadours traveling around the countryside in West Bengal in India and in Bangladesh.As emblems of Bengali culture, Bauls have long been a subject of scholarly debates which center on their esoteric practices, and middle class imaginaries of the category Baul. Adding to this literature, the intimate ethnography presented in this book recounts the life stories of members from a single family, shining light on their past and present tribulations bound up with being poor and of a lowly caste. It shows that taking up the Baul path is a means of softening the stigma of their lower caste identity in that religious practice, where women play a key role, renders the body pure. The path is also a source of monetary income in that begging is considered part of their vocation. For women, the Baul path has the added implication of lessening constraints of gender.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Palestinian Women and Popular Resistance

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book explores Palestinian women's views of popular resistance in the West Bank and examines factors shaping the nature and extent of their involvement. Despite the signing of the Oslo peace accords in 1993and 1995,the Occupied Palestinian Territories in the contemporary period have experienced tightened Israeli occupational control and worsening political, humanitarian, security, and economic conditions.Based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted with women in the West Bank, this book looks at how Palestinian women in the post-Oslo period perceive, negotiate, and enact resistance. It demonstrates that, far from being apathetic', as some observers have charged, Palestinian women remain deeply committed to the goals of national liberation and wish to contribute to an effective popular resistance movement. Yet many Palestinian women feel alienated from prevailing forms of collective popular resistance in the OPT due to the low levels of legitimacy they accord them. ThiTable of ContentsIntroduction 1. Palestinian Women, Nonviolence, and Social Movements 2. Palestinian Women’s Pre-Oslo Activism 3. The Space for Resistance Constricts: Post-Oslo Palestine 4. Palestinian Women’s ‘Disengagement’ 5. Palestinian Women’s Perceptions of Resistance Actions 6. Palestinian Women’s Alternative Resistance Strategies Conclusion Bibliography

  • Taylor & Francis Women Wars and Public Policies

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisWomen, Wars and Public Policies shatters the boundaries of conventional antiracism, offering an examination of white supremacyâs persistence through the lens of humanityâs most pressing challenges. The author tackles migration, war, national security, terrorism, nationalism, and patriarchy, exposing institutionalized oppressions across continents and centuries. Defying identity politics, this book demonstrates the pervasiveness of Western culture and the need to radically address dominant narratives.The author presents three interrelated case studies. They are Eleanor Rooseveltâs advocacy for Japanese Americans and African Americans; connections between Rooseveltâs politics and those of U.S. President Donald Trump including how Trump weaponized masculinity, laying the groundwork for decimating refugee and asylum policies; and Germanyâs culture of remembrance and Chancellor Angela Merkelâs approach to the soâcalled migrant crisis.Transcending racial, national, and disciplinary boundaries with an intersectional framework, Women, Wars and Public Policies exposes parallels between historical injustices and contemporary actions, forcing a reâexamination of national narratives and institutionalized multiculturalism. As migration debates and white supremacy continue to drive politics, this work provides globally significant insights into gender and race, demanding that we confront our shared histories and futures.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Contesting Femicide

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisFocusing on femicide, this book provides a contemporary re-evaluation of Carol Smart's innovative approach to the law question as first outlined in her ground-breaking book, Feminism and the Power of Law (Routledge 1989). Smart advocated turning to the legal domain not so much for demanding law reforms as construing it as a site on which to contest gender and more particularly, gendered constructions of women's experiences. Over the last 30 to 40 years, feminist law scholars and activists have launched scathing trans-jurisdictional critiques of the operation of provocation defences in hundreds of femicide cases. The evidence unearthed by feminist scholars that these defences operate in profoundly sexed ways is unequivocal. Accordingly, femicide cases have become critically important sites for feminist engagement and intervention across numerous jurisdictions. Exploring an area of criminal law that was not one of Smart's own focal concerns, this book both honours and extends STrade Review"Thanks to its ability to account for the complexities of the current femicidal context of the globe, this collection of essays is a timely contribution to the literature on femicide as well as feminist legal scholarship."--Sumru Atuk, Canadian Journal of Women & the LawTable of ContentsContentsAcknowledgementsPreface Carol SmartNotes on contributorsIntroduction Part 1 Criminal Law Reform Case Studies1 Provocation by ‘Sexual Infidelity’─ Diminishing Returns? — Adrian Howe2 Feminist Dilemmas with Law Reform ─ Victoria, Australia — Danielle Tyson and Bronwyn Naylor 3 Criminalising Femicide in Latin American Countries: Legal Power Working For Women? — Patsili ToledoPart 2 Proliferating Sites of Feminist Legal Intervention4 ‘Being Wrought, Perplexed in the Extreme’ ─ Othello and his Syndrome— Adrian Howe5 Fighting Femicide in Turkey ─ Feminist Legal Challenges ─ Daniela Alaattinoğlu and Cemre Baytok 6 The Canadian Femicide Observatory for Justice and Accountability ─ Myrna Dawson7 Judicial Discourse versus Domestic Violence Death Review: An Australian Case Study — Anna Butler and Emma Buxton-Namisnyk 8 Italian Legal Feminism ─ Engaging with the Power of Law — Ilaria Boiano 9 Legal Education ─ Challenging the Finnish Criminal Law Syllabus — Daniela Alaattinoğlu and Johanna Niemi 10 Finland on Trial ─ Marjo RantalaEpilogueIndex

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd The Green Revolution

    Book SynopsisThis book reviews the Green Revolution, starting with its inception and development from the 1940s to the 1970s, and leading to what is commonly referred to as a second Green Revolution in the 2000s. Building on the historical assessment, it draws insights for contemporary policy debates and demonstrates important lessons for the here and now. Green Revolution' refers to the technical measures employed to increase food (particularly grain) production, based mainly on improved seed varieties for higher yields and pest resistance. For it to be successful the Green Revolution often required land reform, investments in irrigation and fertilizer supply that were not available to women and marginal farmers. This book analyses three underlying principles that have guided green revolutions: the political environment in which they were set; how they contributed to both the successes and challenges the Green Revolution continues to face; and the systemicTable of Contents1.
