The answer of course is both. In this lucid and subtle
investigation, Sylvia Walby, one of the world's leading authorities
on gender shows how undoubted increases in opportunity for women in
Europe and America have been accompanid by new forms of inequality.
She charts changes in women's employment, education and political
representation and the complex relations between gender, class and
ethnicity, between local conditions and global pressures which
together determine the place of women both in the labour market and
in the wider social, political and economic world of today.
An eagerly awaited successor to Walby's classic Theorising
Patriarchy, Transforming Gender will be essential reading for
anyone with an interest in how questions of gender remake and are
remade by the social and economic conditions in which they occur.
