Gender und gesellschaftlicher Wandel Jeweils ausgehend von einem aktuellen Ereignis wird anschaulich in die Grundlagen der Gender Studies eingeführt. Dabei wird deutlich, dass Diskussionen über das Thema ‚Gender‘ seit jeher das gesellschaftliche und kulturelle Selbstverständnis des Menschen prägen. Die Verhältnisse der Geschlechter, sowie ihre theoretische und praktische Neuverhandlung, sind dabei sowohl Spiegel wie Antrieb gesellschaftlichen Wandels.

These papers from the first three years of the Oxford seminar on Women in Antiquity appear almost a decade after it began, in 1985. The seminar continues, now renamed Gender in Antiquity. The subject continues, less embattled than in 1985; but, as the editors point out (xiv), this does not mean that women's studies are 'integrated into a curriculum that recognises the problems of gender'. It remains to be seen what difference ' gender studies' will make, and what curriculum could replace the safely segregated Women Option. The editors appear sceptical about women's history, that is, about the ...

The purpose of this study is to explore the gender distribution of researchers in the field of gender studies. We used bibliometrics methods on a dataset of gender studies from Web of Science between 2007 and 2019. The results show that unlike other fields in scientific communities, gender studies are dominated by female researchers. The majorities of gender study communities come from North America and Europe, which are both dominated by female researchers.

The program is designed to help students to learn about historical and contemporary contributions of women and to analyze the construction and representation of gender in the arts, literature, history, psychology, education, contemporary culture, politics, and society. Students are challenged to examine critically assumptions about women and gender held by academic disciplines and to evaluate them based on current research and individual experience. Students also explore sex roles, gender systems, and sexuality in various cultures as they change over time.

paper was prepared for a lecture series entitled "Studying Women: The Impact on the Social Sciences and Humanities." I might have followed the general theme of the series by calling my own paper "Anthropology and the Study of Women." I felt it important, however, to define my subject as the study of gender rather than the study of women. Let me begin by discussing why I considered this reformulation necessary. The anthropological studies of sex roles that have appeared in recent years have been primarily studies of women. This is not surprising, since the resurgence of feminism in the 1960s le...

The main purpose of this article is to broaden U.S. scholars' awareness of the similarities and differences of gender literature in another part of the world. In providing this partial review of gender scholarship in India, the authors hope to foster critical reflection on the inequities of global knowledge production and consumption and the role of U.S. academic institutions and scholars in this project. The article is written not by scholars who are based in India but by those who are based in U.S. academies. Given their location, linguistic and cultural competencies, and scholarly expertise...

Everyone accepts that competitive and just regions require using all the resources at their disposal. So why is it, asks Petra Hirschler , that many people involved in regional studies all too often think of gender issues—maximising women's contributions—as a burden.

The Department of Women's and Gender Studies invites students to use gender as a fundamental category of analysis to understand the operations of power between men, women, and transgender individuals in past and present societies and to recognize how gender has informed and interacted with diverse axes of identification including sexuality, race, ethnicity, class, age, nationality, and religion. Majors will study the methods and theoretical paradigms of feminist and queer research, focusing on how theorists and scholars in the interdisciplinary field of women's and gender studies have critical...

What concepts of ‘gender’ and ‘diversity’ emerge in the different regions and pertinent research and practical fields? On the back drop of current European developments – from the deregulation of economy, a shrinking welfare state to the dissolution and reinforcement of borders – the book examines the development of Gender and Diversity Studies in different European regions as well as beyond and focuses on central fields of theoretical reflection, empirical research and practical implementation policies and politics.

These two anthologies provide startling examples of just how far feminist literary criticism has come in the last twenty years. In its earliest U.S. incarnation, feminist literary criticism either took on men's fantasies about women, as did Mary Ellmann's 1968 Thinking about Women, or else explored the achievements of women writers, seeking, as Patricia Meyer Spacks did in 1972, a Female Imagination, or constructing a tradition of Literary Women, as Ellen Moers did in 1976. These early examples of the genre were all resolutely about women (even when their explicit subject was images of women)....

Faced these questions of justness and objectivity of law from feminism,we should explore what gender the law is and the possible trend of law by the path of feminism jurisprudence and critical jurisprudence which come into being in the western sociology of law since the 80s of the 20th century.By breaking through the barrier of dualism with postmodernism,we can know what the gender of law ought to be.On the basis of surpassing the dualism established by modern enlightenment,the postmodern feminist legal theory point out the future of law after the subject is reconstructed.

The Master’s programme in Gender Studies aims to build a common foundation of general knowledge on the notion of gender through its classes on history, sociology, anthropology, geography, philosophy, political sciences, literature, media cultures and cultural action. This sophisticated, multidisciplinary programme of study stems directly from international research on gender studies, particularly anglophone literature, and calls upon university lecturer-researchers from the set of Bordeaux universities who are specialists in the field of gender studies. External participants are invited as cha...

The twentieth century has substantially changed many stereotypes of gender-role identity in society. The most important phenomena among these changes include the rethinking of the place and role of women in various spheres of public activity and a new approach to rating harmony in relations between the sexes.

In contemporary psychology, normal development is contingent on the establishment of a coherent, universal, stable and unitary ‘core gender identity’. The present study assessed the perception of gender identity in ‘normative’ individuals in Israel using the newly constructed Multi-Gender Identity Questionnaire (Multi-GIQ). The Multi-GIQ includes 32 items assessing gender identity (Feeling like a woman, Feeling like a man, Feeling like both a man and a woman, Feeling like neither), gender dysphoria (Contentment with affirmed gender and the wish to be the ‘other’ gender, Contentment with one’s ...

With the disappearance of rigid employment contract and increasing intenseness of human capital competition,turnover has become a great obstacle to the development of the firms. From gender composition perspective,using empirical data to do partial correlation analysis,we explore the influence of gender composition by employees level and leaders’ gender,and compare with foreign relevant literatures. The finding could help the firms adjust gender composition,improve performance and reduce turnover rate.

This article traces the multiple and rapid changes that have occurred during the past fifteen years, in theorizing “sex/gender arrangements”. A secondary aspect is the reception, application and above all modification of these theories by some scholars of European medieval cultural production, in which varieties of difference are found that do not apply in modern societies. Deconstruction of the binary m/f (whether thought of as sexual or gender difference) erupted among feminist thinkers in the 1990s and eventually “queered” academic discourses by destabilizing labels that had been naturalize...

This essay examines a moment of institutional ization in cultural studies, and argues that questions of gender have a significant place in this interdisciplinary domain. The issue is discussed in a pedagogic context that has almost normalized feminism, seeing its political contribu- tions as belonging to the past. The essay argues that the conceptual conjuncture of culture and gender which has been central to feminist theorizing in India needs to be rethought. This conjuncture arose from thinking about culture in the framework of nationalism and the anti-colonial struggle, and the alignment of...

This study contributes to existing theory by underlining that product brands do have a gender. In addition, the results of this study show that the need for product gender congruence is minimized in Generation Y. Therefore, rethinking the traditional gender stereotyping of products may have more consumer appeal by being marketed to both sexes, or at least to emphasize more of the products attributes and how they can fulfill the needs of the Generation Y consumers. This study further demonstrates a practical method for evaluating the gender of a product brand.

The objects of this article are the articles published on the magazine Collection of Women's Studies from the year 2001 to 2006.

The purpose of this study is to explore Generation Y's consumer perception of product brand's gender and the degree to which different regions seek product gender similarity in the marketing mix, a cross-sectional research design using a survey to examine multiple constructs such as product gender perception, the need for product gender similarities and receptivity to product gender cues at a single point in time. A quantitative study of 200 self-completion questionnaires administered to 100 Andhra Pradesh and 100 Kerala respondents, the results of this study show that the need for product gen...

Resistance expressed by both organizations and participants in processes of gender training that are conducted to mainstream gender into policy-making poses a key challenge for gender mainstreaming. However, such resistance is relatively under-studied. This article explores resistance to gender training that emerges during the implementation of gender mainstreaming by determining the types and forms of resistance to gender training and by finding out just what this analysis of resistance tells us about the problems arising in the implementation of gender mainstreaming. We argue that analysing ...

The thesis is based on a field study carried out in India, Nepal and Tibet during the period of June?August 2005. It examines gender structures in Tibetan society and seeks to explain the background and reasons to existing social and political structures. The object is to call attention to general conclusions regarding equality gathered in the field by focusing on social efficiency rather than ideology or normative values. The purpose is to shed light on a set of arguments in favour of gender equality that may be applied on other cases than the Tibetan. The experience made is that equal...
