Our Changing Land: Revisiting Gender, Class and Identity in Contemporary Wales: Gender Studies in Wales

Editat de Dawn Mannay
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 oct 2016
The past two decades have seen big changes within the small nation of Wales. Our Changing Land examines what is distinctive about Wales and Welshness by exploring the role of men and women in Wales and of Wales itself as a nation, economy, and center of partially devolved governance. Dawn Mannay presents contributions by a range of Welsh scholars and artists from diverse disciplinary backgrounds to raise questions related to equality, social policy, and progression. Featuring photographic art and poetic verse that extend its central arguments, this book offers readers with an interest in Wales and Welsh life an accessible, current, and thought provoking account of the nation.
