The importance of recording testimony of Holocaust survivors is well understood. While empowering the survivor and adding another layer of documentation about the cataclysm, it also serves as a bulwark against Holocaust denial. The same holds true for helping survivors pen their memoirs, or when writing their history. At the same time, this process also impacts upon the person recording the testimony, assisting the survivor in writing his or her memoirs, and certainly upon those who write about the survivors.What happens when the interviewer, biographer, translator, or memoir transcriber is a child or grandchild of that survivor? This book is based on the premise that that a collection of personal narratives of descendants of Holocaust survivors who interviewed their parents\grandparents, wrote their history, or helped them with their memoirs, narratives in which they describe and analyze the impact of these activities on their personal trajectories, can greatly contribute to our understand of the Holocaust and particularly, its aftermath. Each of the book's 14 chapters is a personal narrative by a child or grandchild of Holocaust survivors who analyzes the impact that their interviewing, writing about, or writing with their surviving parents\grandparents had upon their lives.

Inspired by leaders such as Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson, the online Manosphere has exploded in recent years. Dedicated to anti-feminism, these communities have orchestrated online campaigns of misogynistic harassment, with some individuals going as far as committing violent terrorist attacks. Although the Manosphere has become a focus point of the media, researchers and governments alike, discussions tend to either over-sensationalize the community or offer simplistic explanations for their existence. This book uses a mixture of historical and economic analysis, alongside actual Manosphere content, to delve deeper. With The Male Complaint, Simon James Copland explains how the Manosphere has developed and why it appeals to so many men. He argues that the Manosphere is not an aberration, but is deeply embedded within mainstream, neoliberal, social structures. For a cohort of alienated men, the promise of community provides a space of understanding, connection and purpose. This insightful book dares to dig into the corners of incel communities and online spaces where misogyny thrives. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand, and do something about, this growing and worrying phenomenon.

This volume explores the relationship between how elite masculinity was expressed and warfare in Cisalpine Gaul between c. 400-50 BC.The first half of the book demonstrates that material changes in funerary assemblages reflected broader socio-political and military developments. The second half of this study presents the first in-depth analysis of the organisational and tactical capabilities of infantry and cavalry forces in Cisalpine Gaul. Ultimately, this book demonstrates that the Cisalpine Gallic tribes experienced significant socio-political developments during the third century, which significantly increased the sophistication of their warcraft and military forces.Owing to its broad scope and interdisciplinary approach, this book will appeal to professional scholars, university students, and history enthusiasts alike who are interested in archaeology, expressions of elite identity, military studies, and the socio-political development of the lesser-known cultural groups of pre-Roman Italy, the western Mediterranean, and the wider Celtic world in the last four centuries BC.

The bestselling feminist book, now adapted for a young adult audienceBefore the 1960s, sex before marriage was frowned upon and pornography was difficult to get hold of. We are now much freer to do what we like - there has been a 'sexual revolution'. This must be a good thing, right?Wrong, argues Louise Perry. These changes have had many negative consequences, especially for girls and women. The main winners from a world of rough sex, hook-ups and freely available porn are a tiny minority of rich and powerful men. Women have been forced to adapt to these changes in ways that often harm them.Louise Perry carefully guides readers through the difficulties of sex in the 21st century. Her advice will be invaluable to all young women and men who may be feeling lost in a world where 'doing it' can sometimes seem dangerous or confusing.

Protestant Christian historiography has persistently erased unmarried, childless women from the story of faith in Australia. When women are mentioned, they are judged according to a heteronormative, maternalist framework built upon the ideology of separate spheres. This paradigm creates a lopsided picture, whereby women are celebrated for their social and moral influence, but are absent from rational, intellectual discourse. This book asks the question, why have unmarried women who devoted themselves to social justice activism motivated by their Christian faith been erased from the pages of Australian religious histories? It does this through biographies of two unmarried women, each engaged in very different work aimed at creating a more just and equitable Australia.Queer Omissions uses biographical case studies of two unmarried, childless women, Frances Levvy (1831-1924) and Constance Duncan (1896-1970), to critique the writing of Protestant religious histories in Australia, asking why those outside a heteronormative framework have been relegated to the margins. Motivated by their faith, Duncan and Levvy engaged in social justice activism that left an indelible mark on Australian society. Yet, they remain absent from the histories of their own faith communities. Queer Omissions seeks to tell a bigger story, of women who chafed against their contracted sphere yet - motivated by their faith - impacted their world for good. In doing so, it uniquely allows people to see ourselves in the story, finding hope in the process.This book will be of great interest to scholars of religion, gender and sexuality, as well as people of faith trying to understand and reclaim their place in the story.

This book explores the phenomenon of "mum fans": fans who identify themselves as their idols' mothers and participate in online, data-related fan activities termed "parenting." With over 50% active fans identifying as mum fans in China, the vast majority of whom have no children and state no desire to have children in real life, it examines their creation of a unique identity against a backdrop of conflicting and ever-evolving cultural influences.Attending to the fact that in traditional Chinese culture, the term "mum" holds both sacred and taboo status, the author considers whether the mum fans' appropriation of the term represents conformity or rebellion against existing gender norms, and explores the interplay in their practices of a range of influences, including Confucianism, socialism, the one-child policy, liberalism, feminism, pop culture and fan culture. Through a combination of qualitative and quantitative research, Mum Fans: Identity, Feminism and Fan Culture in Contemporary China offers analyses of the interrelations that exist between fans, social media, data technology and the idol industry, thus constituting original and unique study of the cultural foundations of mum fan identities and participants' data parenting practices as a unique expression of Chinese feminism.It will therefore appeal to scholars of sociology and anthropology with interests in fan cultures, gender, data and algorithm culture, and contemporary Chinese society.

ISBN 978-1-032-86628-4 hard ¥40,832.- (税込) GB￡ 145.00

Postfeminist Film and Literary Aesthetics: In Search of the Female Gaze represents a novel and comprehensive study of the aesthetic and affective textual innovations of women in the 21st century from a postfeminist perspective. The book both defines and helps shape the contours of four fast-growing critically and commercially popular modes-millennial film and fiction, metamodernism, an anti-narrative and decorative realm named here as 'still life', and new cli-fi-in which there is no clear male equivalent or in which women's work can be read as a distinct aesthetic force. As the textual constellation of now is being mapped and its key texts being canonised, this book contributes to the current recentring of aesthetic taste that is occurring in both literature, film and surrounding criticism, making greater space for the appreciation of female aesthetics and for future inquiries in this field.

Power. Gender. Sustainability. This Element harnesses powerful new data about gender and sustainability, presents inspiring stories of empowerment, and introduces a framework for building empowerment muscles. First, from a pioneering global survey, it unveils three shocking truths about young women's empowerment. It also compiles significant data on systemic gender disempowerment intersecting environmental degradation, violence, and exclusion, as well as profound societal impact if girls and women were fully empowered. Second, from climate activist Greta Thunberg to the all girl Afghan robotics team, the #NeverAgain movement against gun violence, and the Hong Kong pro-democracy movement, today's empowered girls are a transformative force for change. Each modeling a distinct skill - an empowerment muscle - seven case studies present empowerment muscles of focus, solidarity, hope, courage, advocacy, endurance, and healing. Third, unlike most works using empowerment nebulously, this Element concretizes empowerment - a set of muscles each reader can build and strengthen through 'workout' training exercises.

Bain, Alison L. / Podmore, Julie A., Queerburbia: LGBTQ2S Suburban Place-Making. (Routledge Studies in Urbanism and the City) 250 pp. 2025:5 (Routledge, UK) <742-638>
ISBN 978-1-032-63250-6 hard ¥38,016.- (税込) GB￡ 135.00

To subvert the metronormativity of queer urban studies and re-place queer suburbanism, Queerburbia examines LGBTQ2S place-making/unmaking/remaking on the peripheries of Canada's three largest city-regions (Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal), investigating print media and census representations, civic and para-public allyship, individual and collective activism, and everyday practices of living and dreaming as revealed through photo-elicitation interviews and collective counter-mapping that together unmake and remake suburban places as queer.Queerburbia offers a comparative case study of how large Canadian city-regions become queerer through LGBTQ2S suburban place-making/unmaking/remaking. For urban scholars, it deepens place-making theory with the conceptual introduction of the neologism "queerburbia" as a means to re-envision metropolitan peripheries as sites of queer futures. Practically, it offers civic leaders, urban planners, and policymakers insights into the complex dynamics of municipal LGBTQ2S misrecognition and critical allyship strategies beyond rainbowization. Methodologically innovative, this book combines print media, census, and municipal policy analysis with expert and photo-elicitation interviews, counter-mapping focus groups, and ethnographic fieldwork. It reveals the multiple layers of queerburban place-making/unmaking/remaking, demonstrating how statistical and media representations, municipal services and social inclusion policies, para-public and activist resistance and organizing, and individual living and dreaming emplace sexual and gender minorities in suburbia. An interdisciplinary book at the interstices of Geography, Urban Studies, Suburban Studies, Urban Planning, and LGBTQ+ Studies, its intended audiences are scholars of cities, queer theory, and sexual and gender minority life extending to Women's and Gender Studies, Cultural Studies, Sociology, Anthropology, and Psychology. It targets upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, researchers and practitioners of municipal social inclusion, including civic leaders, urban policymakers, and urban planners.

Drawing on a participatory action research conducted in Italy and Spain among feminist spaces, this book examines the production of safer spaces and the underlying infrastructure of affect and emotions that shape, enable, and support collective action. Amidst the prevailing backlash observed in various European countries, a new wave of feminist movements has emerged since 2015, emphasizing the significance of establishing secure physical spaces within urban settings to counteract the rising levels of inequality, gender-based violence, and economic crises. By challenging a binary understanding of safe spaces, this book presents a dynamic conceptualization of safety within feminist movements, employing an analysis of affect and emotion in collective action. This intricate emotional labor not only challenges traditional gender norms and the social structures that perpetuate them but also poses a critique of the prevailing economic model. Based on four years of ethnographic fieldwork (2017-2021), the argument of the book stems from participants' involvement in the research process, incorporating constructivist grounded theory methods throughout data collection, concept development, and results dissemination. The book argues that the work on affect and emotions within feminist spaces has transformative effects, by increasing the potential for collective action.As such, it will appeal to scholars of political science and sociology with interests in social movements, gender and democracy.

Masculinity at the Movies takes a deep dive into masculinity in film and how Hollywood movies continue to produce and promote masculine stereotypes that place boys and men in constraining patterns of behaviour.From classic film stars to those of the present day, this textbook unpicks the development of the main male stereotypes in film - villains, heroes, and oafs - and how movies can develop healthy new male representations. Alongside Hollywood studio productions, it delves into Black, Native American, and Latino representation as well as LGBTQ masculinity. Going beyond the present, it proposes what healthy masculinity at the movies looks like and where Hollywood should set its sights to create more progressive models of masculinity for the 21st century.Masculinity at the Movies will provide students of Gender Studies, Media Studies, and Cultural Studies, with new insights into stereotypes of men in contemporary film.

Rigotti, Carlotta, The Regulation of Sex Robots: Gender and Sexuality in the Era of Artificial Intelligence. 236 pp. 2025:6 (Routledge, UK) <742-312>
ISBN 978-1-032-90950-9 hard ¥40,832.- (税込) GB￡ 145.00

This book proposes a framework for regulating sex robots - human-like machines designed to engage emotionally and sexually with users through customisable, often AI-powered features.Although they occupy a niche in the adult entertainment and technology industries, sex robots raise complex issues that extend beyond current debates. To date, sex robots are frequently portrayed either as tools for societal liberalisation and remedies for sexual inequalities or as mediums for sexual commodification and personal degradation. These conflicting perspectives echo longstanding feminist debates, which often lead to polarisation and normative deadlock, overlooking the lived experiences of individuals beyond binary and heteronormative frameworks. The evolving legal landscape further complicates these issues. Regulatory bodies, such as the European Union, struggle to keep pace with emerging technologies and human-machine interactions. Their tendency to evaluate innovations as products with hypothetical risks - through a detached, top-down approach -fails to address the intersectional dynamics of privilege and oppression. This book enriches the conversation by moving beyond binary narratives of emancipation and oppression. It challenges the socio-legal construction of gender and sexuality, critiques regulatory inertia and morality policing, and advocates for nuanced, context-aware regulation of sex robots.It will appeal to researchers in socio-legal studies, law and technology, gender and law, as well as those in sociology and gender studies, offering critical insights into the regulation of gendered and sexualised technologies and their broader societal implications.

ISBN 978-1-032-46745-0 hard ¥40,832.- (税込) GB￡ 145.00

Providing an innovative approach to understanding and addressing anti-gender hate speech, this book focuses on its effects on everyday life, how it is handled within legal frameworks, and how it challenges democratic principles.Unlike previous research, which is often limited to currently regulated forms of hate speech, this book is focused on gender-based hate speech, demonstrating its broader social and ideological impacts. By contextualising freedom of expression within democratic values, it offers a new framework for addressing anti-gender hate speech as a threat to both individual dignity and societal diversity. Through this lens, the authors highlight how anti-gender hate speech represents not only a breach of individual rights but also a structural challenge to democracy, requiring responses that reflect these dual dimensions. The book provides a unique contribution to both legal scholarship and democratic theory by rethinking the balance between gender equality and freedom of expression as cooperative as well as inherently contextual and inclusive.Rethinking Online Anti-Gender Hate Speech will be of great interest to students and scholars of Criminology, Law, Media and Communication, Sociology, and Women's and Gender Studies.

This book examines a selection of texts to illuminate how midwifery, obstetrics and women's bodies were viewed during the long eighteenth century, and how these material-discursive entanglements between science, medicine, literature and culture have shaped society's views of pregnancy, childbirth and reproduction.Drawing on feminist theories, including feminist new materialism, this book traces the history of both the reproductive body and the medical knowledges that attended to pregnancy and childbirth during the Enlightenment and early Romanticism in Britain. It identifies the significance of literary and cultural artefacts, including the materiality of the female reproductive body itself, for this knowledge formation, and raises awareness of myths and misconceptions about childbirth that are still very much alive today. It includes chapters looking at Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, John Cleland's Fanny Hill, Laurence Sterne's Tristram Shandy, Eliza Fenwick's Secresy, Or: The Ruin on the Rock, Mary Wollstonecraft's Maria, Or: The Wrongs of Woman, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.Reproduction and the Maternal Body in Literature and Culture is an innovative and interdisciplinary contribution to the medical humanities and feminist philosophy of science, and will interest scholars from a range of backgrounds, including literature and cultural studies, midwifery, medicine and history.

This book presents six scholarly examinations of emerging issues in criminology and criminal justice as they impact LGBTQ+ people. It brings together contributions from leading international researchers exploring the needs of people of diverse sexual orientations and gender identities in the criminal justice context.In addition to focusing on how sexual orientation and gender identity impact access to justice for LGBTQ+ persons, the book also explores how to improve the work of justice practitioners, policing, and corrections in ways that address the unique needs of LGBTQ+ clients. Specific chapters include: a study of support for myths about male rape victims and how indicators of intolerance might shape such beliefs; two examinations of police responses to same-sex intimate partner violence, including an exploration of the role of mandatory arrest policies; an investigation into the barriers LGBTQ+ people face when attempting to access police liaison officers; an analysis of how media coverage framed the 2016 Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida; and suggestions for creating safer and more effective interventions for LGBTQ+ women and girls who are correctional clients.LGBTQ+ Issues in Criminology and Criminal Justice will be a key resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of criminology and criminal justice, law, victimology, policing, corrections, research methods, sociology, and media studies. The chapters in this book were originally published in the journal Criminal Justice Studies.

How is rebel governance gendered, and how does women's participation in rebellion affect the development and execution of governance programs? The author develops a framework for evaluating and explaining rebel governance's gendered dynamics, identifying four areas where attention to women and to gender helps us better understand these institutions: recruitment and internal organization, program expansion, development of new projects, and multi-layered governance relationships. They explore the context and significance of these dynamics using cross-conflict data on rebel governance institutions and women's participation as well as qualitative evidence from three diverse organizations. They suggest that it is not only the fact of women's participation that matters but the gendered nature of social and political relationships that help explain how rebels govern during civil wars. They show how women's involvement can shape governance content and implementation and how their participation may help rebel groups expand projects and engage with civilian communities.

Precarious Empowerment: Sexual Labor in the Coffee Shops of Chile's Santiago provides a textured and telling exploration into the lives and experiences of sex workers in Chile, their encounters with discrimination and economic precarity, and their empowered resistance.Set in and around 'tinted cafes' - spaces hidden from public view where women dance for their male clients and perform sexual services - within Chile's capital city of Santiago, author Pilar Ortiz traces connections between sex work in the present day and the lasting legacies of colonialism and gender and sexual norms. Drawing on her careful ethnographic observations and in-depth interviews with the workers and their clients, the book reveals the many challenges women face at the intersection of class, racial, and gender inequalities. It also documents their resistance to stigma and stifling social norms and predetermined gender roles. In their practice of sexual labor, the book argues that women display a considerable degree of agency, mobility, and empowerment. Within this contentious space, the author explores how sex workers negotiate inequalities and exclusion, and how they are poised to do so in a rapidly changing political and social climate.Exploring experiences of sexual exploitation and resistance within Chile, this book speaks to the much larger question of agency versus oppression in conversations about sexual labor worldwide.

This book delves into the critical issue of cancer as one of the leading causes of death for women across diverse backgrounds, highlighting the alarming racial disparities across healthcare for women that affect mortality rates for Black, Indigenous, and Women of Color.Though heart disease is the number one (21.8%) leading cause of death for females of all races, origins, and ages, cancer is a close second at 20.7%. The experiences of women in cancer range across identities and the systems in which they exist. Cancer does not only impact the diagnosed, but all those around them. This volume provides a wealth of information for consideration for both mental health and medical professionals.This book is an invaluable resource for students and researchers in mental health and psychology, as well as healthcare providers and policymakers interested in public health, women's studies, and healthcare.The chapters in this book were originally published in the Journal of Feminist Family Therapy.

This collection examines representations of Spanish queer aging through investigations of literary and cinematic representations of this demographic, offering a showcase for research on communities often made invisible due to age and sexual identity in Spanish culture with wider implications for queer aging studies research.The volume builds on theoretical foundations established by queer aging studies scholars and the ways in which queer aging differs from heterosexual aging, examining negative topics that arise in literature and film (such as the AIDS crisis, the silencing of queer aging individuals, and social stigmas against this group), in addition to positive topics (like the creation of communities and spaces for queer aging characters). Chapters are structured in conversation with one another about key themes in depictions of queer aging in Spanish culture. Several chapters examine such topics as the aging body, stereotypes and discrimination, old age tropes, and queer invisibility, while others highlight positive representations in exploring the importance of the connection to home, family, and community spaces for queer communities. The collection represents a critical step in future work on queer aging to take future research beyond the Spanish context to extend to new geographic and disciplinary borders.This book will be of interest to scholars in aging studies, gerontology studies, queer theory, health humanities, and Spanish literature and culture.

Feminist scholars have identified pervasive gender discrimination in science as an institution, as well as gender bias in the very content of many scientific theories. An ameliorative project at heart, feminist philosophy of science has inquired into the social and epistemological roots and consequences of these problems and into their potential solutions. Most feminist philosophers agree on a need for diversity in scientific communities to counter the detrimental effects of gender bias. Diversity could thus serve as a unifying concept for a potential consensus of the field. Yet there are substantial differences in the kinds and roles of diversity envisaged. This element argues that we need diversity, both in terms of social locations and of values, to overcome former biases and blind spots. Diversity as such, however, is insufficient. To reap its epistemic benefits, diversity also needs to be institutionalised in a way that counters various forms of epistemic injustice.

Sexual orientation and how we might understand it is a topic that arouses significant controversy. Is sexual orientation a natural or social phenomenon? Are categories such as 'queer' and 'straight' essential to the human condition or dependent on contingent cultural practices? While such questions have been considered from the perspectives of sociology and gender studies, they remain relatively underexplored from a philosophical standpoint.In this book, Matthew Andler breaks new ground examining the metaphysics of sexuality. Distinguishing sexual orientation and sexual identity, he asks why only certain aspects of sexuality count as sexual orientations, arguing that sexual dispositions can only become sexual orientations in virtue of being related to heteropatriarchal kinship structures.He then turns to sexual identity, arguing that the categories 'queer' and 'straight' are grounded in the political function of sexuality cultures as resisting and/or entrenching heteropatriarchal kinship structures. Additionally, he critiques capitalist expropriations of queerness in pinkwashing. He also argues that trans-inclusive interpretations of sexuality categories serve everyone who seeks to build a life outside of the narrow provisions of heteropatriarchal kinship structures.Sexual Orientation and Identity: A Philosophical Analysis will be of interest to those studying the philosophy of gender, social metaphysics, and gender studies, as well as for anyone interested in the conceptual issues underlying debates concerning gender and social justice.
