Feminist (Im)Mobilities in Fortress(ing) North America: Rights, Citizenships, and Identities in Transnational Perspective: Gender in a Global/Local World

Autor Amy Lind Editat de Anne Sisson Runyan Autor Marianne H. Marchand
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 feb 2013
Since the establishment of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) tensions concerning immigration trends and policies, which continued to escalate at the turn of the millennium resulted in revised national security policies in Mexico, Canada, and the United States. These tensions have catalyzed the three governments to rethink their political and economic agendas. While national feminist scholarship in and on these respective countries continue to predominate, since NAFTA, there has been increasing feminist inquiry in a North American regional frame. Less has been done to understand challenges of the hegemonies of nation, region, and empire in this context and to adequately understand the meaning of (im)mobility in people's lives as well as the (im)mobilities of social theories and movements like feminism. Drawing from current feminist scholarship on intimacy and political economy and using three main frameworks: Fortressing Writs/Exclusionary Rights, Mobile Bodies/Immobile Citizenships, and Bordered/Borderland Identities, a handpicked group of established and rising feminist scholars methodically examine how the production of feminist knowledge has occurred in this region. The economic, racial, gender and sexual normativities that have emerged and/or been reconstituted in neoliberal and securitized North America further reveal the depth of regional and global restructuring.

Recenzii

Prize: Honored at the Geographic Perspectives on Women Book Event at the 2013 AAG 'Most accounts of North American integration still tend to focus heavily on economics and trade, and overlook gender dimensions. This book challenges conventional narratives and perspectives and provides insight into the diverse ways in which regionalization limits mobility and rights and reinforces dominant hierarchies in the region. An invaluable contribution to the literature on North American politics.' Laura Macdonald, Carleton University, Canada With concrete specificity, this thoughtful collection chronicles and explains the often unseen and unrecognized consequences of neo-liberal globalization (represented by NAFTA) and post-9/11 securitization of North America for large segments of Canadian, Mexican and United States societies - especially women, indigenous, LGBT, migrant and poor populations. This is a must read for those interested in North America, transnational feminism and/or globalization in general. Jane Bayes, California State University, Northridge, USA

Descriere

Drawing from current feminist scholarship on intimacy and political economy and using three main frameworks: Fortressing Writs/Exclusionary Rights, Mobile Bodies/Immobile Citizenships, and Bordered/Borderland Identities, a handpicked group of established and rising feminist scholars methodically examine how the production of feminist knowledge has occurred in North America. The economic, racial, gender and sexual normativities that have emerged and/or been reconstituted in neoliberal and securitized North America further reveal the depth of regional and global restructuring.
