The Gender of Democracy: Citizenship and Gendered Subjectivity
ISBN: 9780415382960 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As developments in the European Union and elsewhere make the re-examination of citizenship a pressing issue, this book reflects on the persisting 'masculine' character of contemporary democracy and the measures taken in the EU to combat it. Combining a theoretical approach with a specific critique of EU gender policy, The Gender of Democracy argues that substantial democracy as a social project cannot co-exist with the current system of gender relations that are inherently dichotomous and thus demarcate social categories of superior and inferior status. Drawing on utopian thought, Maro...
