The nine papers in this volume have a world in which the
local/global connection is salient as background. Examining gender
and its implications for feminist action within this setting, they
fall into three overlapping categories. The first, theory, involves
the theoretical consideration of gender across place and time. The
second, research, reveals cultural differences in attitudes toward
gender, and the third, action, concerns the feminist implications
of gender as hierarchy.
Disciplines represented include archaeology, cultural anthropology,
sociology, and urban studies. Comparing, contrasting, and
critiquing, authors based in Australia, Brazil, Italy, New Zealand,
and the United States report research findings and personal
experiences from their home countries as well as Canada, Mexico,
Siberia, Slovakia, and a range of Asian nations. In every instance,
gender dynamics are shown to be challenging and complex and new
insights and directions for gender research, theory and action are
revealed.
