Gender, Politics, and Society in Ukraine is the first collection
to examine how political, social, and economic transitions in
post-Communist Ukraine are transforming gender roles and relations
within the country. Leading Western and Ukrainian scholars and
practitioners address a wide range of effects associated with and
reinforced by these transitions - including the breakdown of the
general welfare system, the lack of progress in the development of
the healthcare system, gender inequality in political
representation, the patriarchal nature of nation building, human
trafficking, domestic violence, changing conceptions of fatherhood
and masculinity, homelessness, and LGBT issues - from a variety of
methodological and disciplinary perspectives.
Gender, Politics, and Society in Ukraine is particularly
innovative in its exploration of both women's and men's experiences
and the ways in which gender relations shift over time in societies
undergoing transitions to democracy. As such, this volume furthers
the understanding of the complex obstacles and challenges of
working towards gender equality in evolving democracies and
identifies future priorities for research, politics, and policy
development.
