Description

A unique collection by leading scholars that explores the interplay of gender and globalization through an intersectional and postcolonial lens.

This insightful volume examines crucial questions, issues, and cases related to gender on a global scale. Drawing on an intersectional, postcolonial framework, the text exposes students to a variety of perspectives on how globalization has affected gender issues, and conversely how gender has informed global issues.

Editorial Reviews

"The clear strength of Gendering Globalization, Globalizing Gender is its extraordinary breadth, which reflects the theoretical and methodological sophistication of global gender studies as a field." --Kimberly A. Williams, Mount Royal University

"Every chapter is rooted in a feminist, queer, anti-colonial, anti-capitalist and Indigenous framework. The contributing scholars/activists write with great knowledge about their subject matter but their passionate commitment to a better world is what really resonates." --Mythili Rajiva, University of Ottawa
