Women have long struggled with issues of citizenship, identity, and the challenge of being recognized as equal members of the community. Governments use feminine imagery (e.g., mother country) to create a national identity, while simultaneously minimizing the role that women play as productive contributors to the society. Authors Joyce P. Kaufman and Kristen P. Williams examine the relationship of government and women in four different countries: the United States, Israel, the former Yugoslavia, and Northern Ireland. In each case, numerous similarities appear: conflict plays a significant role in the definition of citizenship for women; women's movements have worked in contradiction to the state; and citizenship and marriage are gendered undertakings.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 232mmItem Length: 154mmItem Width: 19mmItem Weight: 386gRelease Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
