Political scientists have, on occasion, missed subtle but powerful
forms of 'everyday resistance' and have not been able to show how
different representations (pictures, statements, images, practices)
have different impacts when negotiating power. Instead they have
concentrated on open forms of resistance, organized rebellions and
collective actions. Departing from James Scott's idea that
oppression and resistance are in constant change, Resisting
Gendered Norms provides us with a compelling account on the nexus
between gender, resistance and gender-based violence in Cambodia.
To illustrate how resistance is often carried out in the tension
between, on the one hand, universal/globalised representations and,
on the other, local 'truths' and identity constructions, in-depth
interviews with civil society representatives, politicians as well
as stakeholders within the legal/juridical system were conducted.
