A Political and Economic Dictionary of Western Europe is an
invaluable guide for those seeking clarification of terms, or a
quick reference source. The range of entries is broad and
encompasses the recent history and economy of each country of the
region as well as political parties, geographical features,
prominent individuals, international organizations and key
businesses. It provides over 600 key definitions and presents an
overview of the changing political dimensions of Western Europe and
its relations with the European Union.
Although there is a growing body of international literature on the
feminisation of politics and the policy process and, as New
Labour's term of office progresses, a rapidly growing series of
texts around New Labour's politics and policies, until now no one
text has conducted an analysis of New Labour's politics and
policies from a gendered perspective, despite the fact that New
Labour have set themselves up to specifically address women's
issues and attract women voters. This book fills that gap in an
interesting and timely way. Women and New Labour will be a valuable
addition to both feminist and mainstream scholarship in the social
sciences, particularly in political science, social policy and
economics. Instead of focusing on traditionally feminist areas of
politics and policy (such as violent crime against women) the
authors opt to focus on three case study areas of mainstream policy
(economic policy, foreign policy and welfare policy) from a
gendered perspective. The analytical framework provided by the
editors yields generalisable insights that will outlast New
Labour's third term.
