The articles in the volume examine the intersection of gender with
other characteristics in a variety of settings including factory
floors and corporate offices, welfare offices, state legislatures,
the armed forces, universities, social clubs and playing fields.
Central themes running through several of the articles include how
men and women conceive their identities and their futures and talk
about and manage their work, family and leisure lives, how women
view their bodies and images, and the progress women have - or have
not - made in over-coming poverty and advancing in the corporate,
legislative and military worlds. The research sites include Canada,
Cuba, England, Greece, Israel, Mexico and the United States. As in
previous volumes in the series, the authors employ a range of
qualitative and quantitative methodologies and build on the current
literature. Most of the articles have policy implications and are
designed to stimulate further research. The volume is introduced
with an essay by the editor and framed by an article about feminist
intersectional research.
