Recenzii

"The strength of the collection then lies precisely in its ability to engage empirically and theoretically with pressing contemporary issues within postcolonial feminist theory. Using contributions from various disparate geopolitical sites the collection integrates the theoretical aspects into a cutting edge overall framework while maintaining the importance of local empirical contributions. Any reader who is interested in rethinking the perception of centre and periphery in relation to the nation-state will find this collection useful and interesting."--British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies "It is clear from the essays in this collection that feminist cultural studies can make valuable contributions to understanding the gender politics of national and transnational economies of ideas, art, desires, and social movements. Kaplan, Alarcon, and Moallem have polished a series of articles that will no doubt inspire much strong future work."--Environment and Planning D: Society and Space, issue 19/5, 2001

Textul de pe ultima copertă

"This is a superb collection, deftly edited and wonderfully argued. Individually, the contributors expand the scope of transnationality studies to include the Middle East and Latin America. The volume as a whole focuses on important analytics: gendered imaginaries in nationalism, regulatory practices, and globablized feminism. The editors' argument for immanent critique is a useful contribution to thinking and teaching feminism in an international frame."--Tani E. Barlow, University of Washington
