Women Out of Place - The Gender of Agency and the Race of Nationality (Hardcover, New)

Building on the work of anthropologists, historians, sociologists, literary critics, and feminist philosophers of science, the essays in " Women Out of Place: the Gender of Agency and Race of Nationality" investigate the linkages between agency and race for what they reveal about constructions of masculinity and femininity and patterns of domesticity among groups seeking to resist varied forms of political and economic domination through a subnational ideology of racial and cultural redemption.
Does agency have a gender? Does nationality have a race? Does the race of nationality predetermine the gender of agency? This volume asks these questions of a variety of nationalist ideologies, some at the same point in history, others as precursors of or predecessors to an initial nationalist formation.
Contributors are: Richard G. Fox, Eva Haseby-Darvas, Paulette Pierce, Deborah Rubin, Louisa Schein, Carol A. Smith, Jacqueline True.
