These unique insights into the political struggles of Cambodian
women extend the concept of resistance and create a framework of
analysis that will inspire researchers in other fields. In a world
where there are few women politicians, Cambodia is still noticeable
as a country where strong cultural and societal forces act to
subjugate women and limit their political opportunities. However,
in their everyday life, Cambodian women do try to improve their
situation and increase their political power, not least via
manifold strategies of resistance. This book focuses on Cambodian
female politicians and the strategies they deploy in their attempts
to destabilize the cultural boundaries and hierarchies that
restrain them. In particular, the book focuses on how women use
discourses and identities as means of resistance, a concept only
recently of wide interest among scholars studying power. The value
of this book is thus twofold: not only does it give a unique
insight into the political struggles of Cambodian women but also
offers new insights to studies of power.
