| Abstract | "In the new edition of this bestselling text and scholarly reference, new and revised chapters reflect shifts in the gendered, classed, racialized and sexualized nature of ongoing global restructurings. Through fresh intersectional feminist analyses of widening health, climate, care, inequality, democracy and knowledge crises since the Great Financial Crisis and the deepening of many forms of capitalism, this volume stresses the complexities of multiple restructurings which demand new ways to think across sightings, sites and resistances. Some of each of these elements are in every chapter, which take the reader to different sightings, such as of neoliberalizations, neoauthoritarianizations, multipolarizations, financializations and migrations. They also bring into view different geographic sites, such as Hong Kong, sub-Saharan and North Africa, Canada, Mexico, Bangladesh and the trade blocs of the European Union and the BRICs, and different non-geographic sites such as productive and reproductive economies and the virtual economy of finance and digitalization. They further highlight different forms of women's and feminist resistance, such as local and national labor organizing, regional and multipolar organizing, reimagining infrastructure design and broadening non-capitalist community and solidarity economies. Many chapters critique problematic constructions of women's empowerment, and all challenge the machinations of neoliberal capital that undermine most women, marginalized peoples and the planet. Providing a coherent and challenging approach to contemporary gendered globalization, better understood as global restructurings, since the last edition over a decade ago, Gender and Global Restructurings will be of interest to students and scholars of IPE, international relations, economics, development and gender studies"-- Provided by publisher. |
