Originally conceived by Kimberle Crenshaw in 1989 as a tool for the
analysis of the ways in which different forms of social inequality,
oppression and discrimination interact and overlap in
multidimensional ways, the concept of 'intersectionality' has
attracted much attention in international feminist debates over the
last decade. Framing Intersectionality brings together proponents
and critics of the concept, to discuss the 'state of the art' with
those that have been influential in the debates that surround it.
Engaging with the historical roots of intersectionality in the
US-based 'race-class-gender' debate, this book also considers the
European adoption of this concept in different national contexts,
to explore issues such as migration, identity, media coverage of
sexual violence against men and transnational livelihoods of high
and low skilled migrants. Thematically arranged around the themes
of the transatlantic migration of intersectionality, the
development of intersectionality as a theory, men's studies and
masculinities, and the body and embodiment, this book draws on
empirical case studies as well as theoretical deliberations to
investigate the capacity and the sustainability of the concept and
shed light on the current state of intersectionality research.
Presenting the latest work from a team of leading feminist scholars
from the US and Europe, Framing Intersectionality will be of
interest to all those with interests in gender, women's studies,
masculinity, inequalities and feminist thought.

Die hier versammelten Beitrage spiegeln den aktuellen Stand der
Debatte um Intersektionalitat 20 Jahre nach Pragung des Begriffes
im Schwarzen Feminismus in den USA. Bei seiner transatlantischen
Reise durchlief der Ansatz Metamorphosen und fiel in Europa auf
vorbereiteten Boden, insbesondere in anglophonen und
deutschsprachigen feministischen Diskursen. Klasse, Geschlecht,
Ethnizitat und Rasse, Sexualitat, Behinderung, Alter und andere
Dimensionen von Ungleichheit und Identitat werden inzwischen in
intersektioneller Perspektive untersucht. In diesem Band wird der
Ansatz vorgestellt und in transdisziplinare und transnationale
Analyseperspektiven wie Diskurstheorie, Biographieforschung,
Wissenssoziologie, Rahmenanalyse und Sozialstrukturanalyse
eingesetzt, erganzt um kritische Interventionen zu Problemen und
Grenzen dieses Konzepts. Mit Beitragen von Mechtild Bereswill,
Kimberle Crenshaw, Kathy Davis, Jeff Hearn, Gudrun-Axeli Knapp,
Kira Kosnick, Gail Lewis, Helma Lutz, Nina Lykke, Myra Marx Ferree,
Anke Neuber, Ann Phoenix, Paula Irene Villa, Nira Yuval Davis, und
Dubravka Zarkov."
