As "globalization" moves rapidly from buzzword to cliche,
evaluating the claims of neoliberal capitalism to empower and
enrich remains urgently important. The authors in this volume
employ feminist, ethnographic methods to examine what free trade
and export processing zones, economic liberalization, and currency
reform mean to women in Argentina, Sri Lanka, Mexico, Ghana, the
United States, India, Jamaica, and many other places. Heralded as
agents of prosperity and liberation, neoliberal economic policies
have all too often refigured and redoubled the burdens of gender,
race, caste, class, and regional subordination that women bear.
Traders, garment factory operatives, hotel managers and maids,
small farmers and agricultural laborers, garbage pickers, domestic
caregivers, daughters, wives, and mothers--women around the world
are struggling to challenge the tendency of globalization talk to
veil their marginalization.
