Through case studies and interview data from across the globe we see how intersectionality and inequality are contextualized shaping womens agencies, gender relations, identity, the politics of belonging, power structures, institutional arrangements, and empowerment (self and/or collective) in local communities and cultures influenced by transnational and global networks and processes. Those who experience inequality, the politics of exclusion and social injustice by virtue of gender, ethnicity and/or class and other differences are the most vulnerable in the face of new adversities, including those that occur in response to globalization. Broader theoretical and methodological contexts for these nation- and region-specific studies are provided in essays by leading gender theorists. Divisions of labor, migration, war and peace-building are among the specific topics addressed in papers from China, India, Israel, Korea, Northern Ireland, Turkey, and the United States. 7aSocial SciencexGender Studies.2bisacsh 7aSocial SciencexFeminism & Feminist Theory.2bisacsh 7aSocial SciencexGeneral.2bisacsh 7aGender studies, gender groups.2bicssc 7aSociology.2bicssc 0aSex discriminationvCongresses.1 aChow, Esther Ngan-ling,d1943-1 aSegal, Marcia Texler,d1940-1 aTan, Lin.1 z9780857247438 0aAdvances in gender research ;vv. 15.40uhttp://www.emeraldinsight.com/1529-2126/15
