Recenzii
"This powerful volume, in the hands of students, researchers and educators, will be wonderfully dangerous—it will help to change the world. Featuring outstanding contributions by established and upcoming scholars writing on gender, sexuality, and feminist activism, the book advances ideas about how we can work toward more equitable futures in the context of leisure research, theory, and practice. Feminisms in Leisure Studies: Advancing a Fourth Wave represents a big wave indeed."
Brett Lashua, Reader in Leisure and Culture at Leeds Beckett University, UK
"Using the framework of the 4th Wave, Parry brings together an array of researchers to provide a theoretically sophisticated and yet accessible approach to contemporary feminist perspectives on leisure. This book is long overdue in our field and marks a turning point for current and future researchers who want to move beyond gender based discussions grounded in individual markers of identities and in binaries, toward institutional and structural level analyses. This book is a must read for those interested in doing research that allows for direct and ongoing gender-related critiques while also providing the theoretical underpinnings to support advocacy for social change and social justice. Regardless of one’s area of research or interest in leisure studies, this book is a must read for everyone."
Dana Kivel, Professor of Recreation, Parks & Tourism Administration and Director of the Community Engagement Center, California State University, USA
"This book is ideal for postgraduate students and leisure scholars with its clear and well-organized summary of each theoretical approach...Overall, this is a good quality book carrying valuable strengths one of which is its call for new areas of feminist leisure research."
