ISBN: 9780745601588 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 1 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The concept of 'patriarchy' is one which signals a sharp divide between traditions of feminist thought. Sylvia Walby attempts to conceptualize 'patriarchy' in a way that takes account not only of the complexity of relationships of gender, but also of the subtleties of the interconnections of patriarchy and capitalism.
She rejects those accounts which treat patriarchy as a unified set of relations, or which confine the site of patriarchy to any one privileged sphere such as the family. Instead, she elaborates a novel view of patriarchy as a set of 'relatively autonomous... The concept of 'patriarchy' is one which signals a sharp divide between traditions of feminist thought.

ISBN: 9781447332633 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

As policy aimed at reducing violence or providing assistance to women rarely tackles the underlying issue of gender inequality, and vice versa, there exists a clear need for guidance. Covering homicide (and femicide specifically), rape and sexual assault, domestic and...
