As part of the emerging new research on civic innovation, this book
explores how sexual politics and gender relations play out in
feminist struggles around body politics in Brazil, Colombia, India,
Iran, Mexico, Nepal, Turkey, Nicaragua, as well as in East Africa,
Latin America and global institutions and networks. From diverse
disciplinary perspectives, the book looks at how feminists are
engaged in a complex struggle for democratic power in a neoliberal
age and at how resistance is integral to possibilities for change.
In making visible resistances to dominant economic and social
policies, the book highlights how such struggles are both gendered
and gendering bodies. The chapters explore struggles for healthy
environments, sexual health and reproductive rights, access to
abortion, an end to gender-based violence, the human rights of
LGBTIQA persons, the recognition of indigenous territories and all
peoples' rights to care, love and work freely. The book sets out
the violence, hopes, contradictions and ways forward in these civic
innovations, resistances and connections across the globe.
