The increasing reliance on private military and security companies in contemporary conflict marks a fundamental transformation in the organization of military violence, and it raises issues of accountability and ethics that are of particular concern to feminists. This privatization of force not only enables states to circumvent citizens' democratic control over questions of war and peace, but also undermines women's and minority groups' claims for greater inclusion in the military sphere. Gender and Private Security in Global Politics brings together key scholars from the fields of international relations, security studies, and gender studies to argue that privatization of military security is a deeply gendered process. The chapters employ a variety of feminist perspectives, including critical, postcolonial, poststructuralist, and queer feminist perspectives, as well as a wide range of methodological approaches including ethnography, participant-observation, genealogy, and discourse analysis. This is the first book to develop an extended feminist analysis of private militaries and to draw on feminist concerns regarding power, justice and equality to consider how to reform and regulate private forces"-- "For two hundred years the provision of military security has been a central and defining function of the modern nation-state.

This privatization of force not only enables states to circumvent citizens' democratic control over questions of war and peace, but also undermines the claims for greater inclusion in the military sphere made by women and minority groups over the past decades. Gender and Private Security in Global Politics brings together key scholars in the emerging research area of "critical gender studies in private security." These scholars contend that the privatization of military security is a deeply gendered process, with gendered underpinnings and effects. Consequently, they employ a variety of feminist perspectives, including critical, postcolonial, poststructuralist, and queer feminist perspectives, as well as a wide range of methodological approaches such as ethnography, participant-observation, genealogy, and discourse analysis, in order to consider answers to questions about how to reform and regulate private forces"-- مندرجات Machine generated contents note: -- Acknowledgements -- List of Contributors -- List of Acronyms -- Gender and the Privatization of Military Security: An Introduction -- Maya Eichler -- Part One: Beyond the Public/Private Divide: Feminist Analyses of Military Privatization and the Gendered State -- Chapter 1: Military Privatization as a Gendered Process: A Case for Integrating Feminist International Relations and Feminist State Theories -- Saskia Stachowitsch -- Chapter 2: Military Privatization and the Gendered Politics of Sacrifice -- Bianca Baggiarini -- Chapter 3: Gender, PMSCs, and the Global Rescaling of Protection: Implications for Feminist Security Studies -- Maya Eichler -- Part Two: Rethinking the Private Military Contractor I: Third Country Nationals and the Making of Empire -- Chapter 4: (Re)Producing American Soldiers in An Age of Empire -- Isabelle V.

The answers to this question vary from one community to the next, and often from woman to the next, although the trends in the Global North and South are strikingly different. Employing three conceptual frames; medicalization, the public-private distinction, and intersectionality, Candace Johnson examines these differences through the narratives of women in Canada, the United States, Cuba, and Honduras. In Canada and the United States, women from privileged and marginalized social groups demonstrate the differences across the North-South divide, and women in Cuba and Honduras speak to the realities of severely constrained decision-making in developing countries. Each case study includes narratives drawn from in-depth interviews with women who were pregnant or who had recently had children. Johnson argues that women's expressed preferences in different contexts reveal important details about the inequality that they experience in that context, in addition to as various elements of identity. Both inequality and identity are affected by the ways in which women experience the division between public and private lives--the life of the community and the life of the home and family--as well as the consequences of intersectionality--the combinations of various sources of disadvantage and women's reactions to these, either in the form of resistance or compliance. The rigorous and highly original cross cultural and comparative research on health, gender, poverty and social context makes Maternal Transition an excellent contribution to global maternal health policy debates"-- لینک ثابت رکورد: ../opac/index.php?lvl=record_display&id=2701 زبان مدرک : English

The politics of work-family policies (2015) / Boling ، Patricia (1953-)، نویسنده

نوع مدرک: متون چاپی سرشناسه Boling ، Patricia (1953-)، نویسنده شماره بازیابی : HD4904.25 .B65 2015 عنوان : The politics of work-family policies : Japan, France, Germany, and the US compared تکرار نام مولف : Patricia Boling ناشر: Cambridge : Cambridge University Press سال نشر : 2015 صفحه شمار: pages cm شابک/شاپا 9781107098121 (hardback) یادداشت Includes bibliographical references and index موضوع‌ها : اصفا Work and family ؛ Work and family--Government policy ؛ Family policy ؛ POLITICAL SCIENCE / General چکیده : "The work-family policies of Sweden and France are often held up as models for other nations to follow, yet political structures and resources can present obstacles to fundamental change that must be taken into account. Patricia Boling argues that we need to think realistically about how to create political and policy change in this vital area. She evaluates policy approaches in the US, France, Germany and Japan, analyzing their policy histories, power resources, and political institutions to explain their approaches, and to propose realistic trajectories toward change. Arguing that much of the story lies in the way that job markets are structured, Boling shows that when women have reasonable chances of resuming their careers after giving birth, they are more likely to have children than in countries where even brief breaks put an end to a career, or where motherhood restricts them to part-time work"-- "The idea of comparing several countries with respect to how well they support working parents occurred to me at a point in my life when I was immersed in establishing an academic career and raising three small children. Because my children were born before I had tenure, I got to experience how parents manage to find and pay for childcare on a shoestring budget, and to do so in both Japan and the United States. The experience ignited my desire to understand why some countries are more willing and able to support working parents than others"-- مندرجات Machine generated contents note: Preface; 1.
