This comprehensive handbook attempts to summarize the state of
gender studies not only by examining the crucial research of the
past decade, but by encouraging thinking about how the questions
central to studying gender have themselves changed. Building on the
work started by the contributors to this volume's predecessor,
(Analyzing Gender, Sage 1987), editors Myra Marx Ferree, Judith
Lorber, and Beth B. Hess reflect on the advances of gender
scholarship during the past decade with its emphasis on all levels
of social structure from the most macro to the most individual.
Revisioning Gender is a step, albeit a tentative one, toward
constructing a new analytical approach for the social sciences, one
that calls into question disciplinary boundaries and the specific
agendas that may be entailed within them. The editors, and the
contributors to this important volume, illustrate how the use of
gender by scholars in various and overlapping fields of study has
helped alter concepts and research designs. The goal of this volume
is to present, and encourage, the debates that advance the study of
social science.
