The study of gender in rural spaces is still in its infancy.
Thus far, there has been little exploration of the constitution of
the varied and differing ways that gender is constituted in rural
settings. This book will place the question of gender, rurality and
difference at its center.
The authors examine theoretical constructions of gender and
explore the relationship between these and rural spaces. While
there have been extensive debates in the feminist literature about
gender and the intersection of multiple social categories, rural
feminist social scientists have yet to theorize what gender means
in a rural context and how gender blurs and intersects with other
social categories such as sexuality, ethnicity, class and
(dis)ability. This book will use empirical examples from a range of
research projects undertaken by the authors as well as
illustrations from work in the Australasia region, Europe, and the
United States to explore gender and rurality and their relation to
sexuality, ethnicity, class and (dis)ability.
