This new edition of Profit and Pleasure: Sexual Identities in Late Capitalism explores how sexual identities have been shaped, differentiated, and commodified through the cultural and economic logics of capitalism.

Examining the interrelations among labour, value, consumption, and social reproduction, the book offers a materialist account of how bodies and desires are organized within shifting historical conditions. It brings together key concepts such as totality, overdetermination, and the social reproduction of labour to illuminate the structural forces that shape sexual subjectivities, demonstrating why these dynamics remain central to understanding contemporary sexual politics. In this new edition, a substantial Afterword extends this analysis into the twenty first century, addressing the heightened politicization of transgender life and situating this development within broader crises of capitalist reproduction and state power.

This foundational text is essential reading for students and scholars of feminist studies, queer and trans studies, cultural theory, and social and political thought who seek a rigorous materialist framework for understanding the historical and contemporary formations of sexuality.

Politics of Feminist New Materialisms at Music Playschools: Musicking in the Middle examines how feminist new materialist politics unfold within diverse music playschool practices in Finland.

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork across five distinct groups - including sessions for babies, asylum seekers, deaf and hard-of-hearing children, and children with disabilities - the book explores how affirmative politics intersect with restrictive forces of power. By analysing the simultaneity of limiting and empowering forces of power, it situates feminist new materialisms within ongoing conversations about intersectionalities, their dynamic transformations and mutual impact of human and more-than-human elements in the formation of differences. The study discusses the concepts of the middle and middling as methodological and political tools by attuning to human languages, movement, silence, vibrations, and rhythms within musical encounters.

Politics of Feminist New Materialisms at Music Playschools: Musicking in the Middle is of interest for scholars and students in feminist theory, gender studies, new materialisms, (ethno)musicology, ethnographic methods, childhood studies, and early music education.

This book takes inspiration from AIDS activist history to argue that current individualized approaches to the queer suicide crisis could be expanded to include structural work. Critiquing initiatives that fail to address traumatic conditions causing queer suicidality, it proposes adapting AIDS activist strategies as educational resistance to the structural forces that make many queer people not want to be alive.

The book explores six areas critical to improving the livability of queer communities: (1) familial homophobia and transphobia, (2) poverty, (3) healthcare, (4) education, (5) lateral violence, and (6) administrative violence. Examining both lived realities and educational implications, it makes an urgent case for the importance of addressing these six areas for queer folks, especially trans youth, in an increasingly conservative climate.

A timely and forward-thinking volume, this book will be of interest to researchers, students, and activists working on queer history, mental health, HIV/AIDS, activism, and queer and trans studies.

The Routledge International Handbook of Psychoanalysis and Gender comprehensively covers psychoanalytic concepts and perspectives touching on major debates that have led to arguments, discussions, and considerations of gender, uncovering the topical groundwork, and predicting future directions.

The book highlights the broad interface and myriad reciprocities between gender and psychoanalysis, putting diverse psychoanalytic perspectives in dialogue with one another. With an emphasis on the role of the unconscious in gender identity formation, it critically examines today's combative discursive context. An international team of contributors explore the global scope of the debate, current clinical practice, the polarized political context. They lay out with precision the theoretical underpinnings of the social and cultural aspects of sex, gender, sexuality, love, desire, sexual identity, race, identity politics, and the controversies surrounding them. Thinking beyond the normative, Oedipal, and phallic landscape, transcending sex and gender binaries, this handbook radically expands the current critical frame of reference. It addresses gender and sexuality, oppression, transgenerational trauma, the embodied effects of the global climate crisis, postcolonial and non-Western perspectives, and queer and trans psychoanalysis-establishing an enduring reference in gender and psychoanalysis.

This essential book will appeal to psychoanalysts, psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, counselors, and therapists. It will also be an indispensable reference for students in the humanities and researchers of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy, gender, literature, film, philosophy, sociology, queer studies, and women studies, among others.

Combining both empirical and theoretical analyses, this insightful book presents a clear, research-informed model for running classroom discussions that are both intellectually rigorous and genuinely inclusive.

Building on feminist analyses of how gendered norms shape who speaks, who is heard, and what counts as "good" reasoning, the book shows why conventional formats often privilege assertive, adversarial styles and marginalise other valuable repertoires of thinking and communicating. Introducing a novel pedagogical tool, Critical Collaborative Dialogue (CCD), it offers a practical framework that specifies a democratic setup, problem-posing questions that matter, open questioning, personal engagement, and teacher facilitation that shares epistemic authority. This model is adaptable across subjects and year levels, and is grounded in dialogic traditions such as exploratory dialogue and philosophy for and with children (P4wC). Readers see how these design choices redistribute talk, deepen reasoning, and lift students' sense of meaning and belonging, with evidence from student interviews and focus groups.

Written for scholars, researchers, and teacher educators interested in oracy, dialogic pedagogy, and gender equity, it offers ready-to-use structures, language moves, and routines that help build classrooms where diverse voices contribute to high-quality thinking and where all students experience discussion as a place to learn, belong, and lead.

This book explores how HR technologies may mitigate the negative impacts of work-family conflicts on work engagement, a topic of increasing relevance in the digital era.

Acknowledging the changes in gender stereotypes and its impact on work engagement, this book undertakes systematic literature reviews on gender stereotypes, work-family conflicts, work engagement, and disruptive HR technologies to identify gaps in existing Human Resource Management research. Grounding on the theories such as social role theory, role-conflict theory, and the job-demand resource mode, Priyashantha surveys over 600 Sri Lankan private sector executives and shows that changing gender stereotypes both enhance work engagement and intensify work-family conflict; while the perceived desirability of disruptive HR technologies raises engagement, it can amplify the negative impact of work-family conflict on work engagement when not matched by credible implementation. Practical implications of the research for organizations and HR practitioners are also discussed.

This book is of interest to scholars of human resource management and organizational behaviour.

This book explores constructions of the "good mother" within diverse nations and nationalisms, focusing on three contexts grappling with distinct forms of "demographic anxiety." Inspired by Sara Farris' inquiry into femonationalism and utilizing "maternalism" and "politics of care" as critical theoretical instruments, the book analyses the evolving political and social expectations imposed upon mothers in Lithuania, migrant mothers, including postsocialist migrant mothers from Central Asia and Caucasus in Sweden, and women in the militarizing authoritarian Russian state's construction of maternity within its "traditional values" agenda. It also probes both how "good motherhood" is enacted and contested by individual mothers, as well as how it is mobilized in resisting conservative, ethnonationalist tendencies (in Sweden) and militarism (in the case of Russia). The book's chapters illuminate the roles of political and social actors engaged with renegotiating materialist politics-such as grassroots birth activist movements and maternalist social policy campaigns-as well as those defying militarism.

Public finance is often considered a discipline where numbers, efficiency, and productivity talk. And while gender budgeting, a field of public financial management (PFM), has gained increasing attention in recent years, the personal stories of the women driving this work have remained largely invisible. This is the first book to share unprecedented insider narratives from the women shaping public finance and public policy.

It brings together the stories and conversations of 22 professional women from around the globe who are all working in the fields of PFM and gender budgeting, a space largely dominated by men. These authentic first-person accounts provide rare insights into both the barriers and breakthroughs experienced by women in a field traditionally dominated by technical discourse and masculine perspectives. It demonstrates how women's presence at decision-making tables directly opens the discussions on inclusive, sustainable, and effective public finance outcomes. It provides:

• Authentic insights into gender representation in PFM and how it can be advanced within the structures of public finance-from ministries of finance to donor agencies and civil society.
• Encouragement and strategic guidance in navigating leadership, reform fatigue, and institutional resistance, particularly women and underrepresented groups.
• A storytelling approach, helping readers to relate to this largely technical area.
• Concrete examples of successful reform and personal stories of resilience, valuable for professionals creating capacity-building programs, applying change management, or shaping institutional culture.

This important book is for public finance professionals, civil servants, economists, gender policy advisors, donor agency staff, civil society organizations, and graduate students in gender studies, public policy, governance, and development programs, providing both inspiration and practical pathways for creating more equitable financial systems worldwide.

Technomorphisms and the Posthuman Turn explores the profound intersections between psychoanalysis and posthumanism, shedding light on the evolving complexities of subjectivity in a hyper-technological world.

This ground-breaking volume delves into the hybridization of the human, nature, and technology, examining how these intersections reshape notions of gender, sexuality, identity, and subjectivity. Through contributions from leading thinkers, the book addresses the ethical and theoretical challenges posed by posthumanism, including the rise of nomadic subjectivities, prosthetic bodies, and the dominance of digital culture. It critically investigates the impact of these transformations on psychoanalytic theory and practice, urging a re-evaluation of traditional epistemological frameworks. By fostering dialogue with other disciplines, the book seeks to deepen our understanding of unconventional subjectivities and the shifting itineraries of sexuality and gender in contemporary society.

This book is an essential resource for psychoanalysts, scholars, and students interested in the intersections of psychoanalysis, gender studies, posthumanism, and technology. It is also invaluable for anyone seeking to understand the ethical and theoretical implications of living in a world where the boundaries of the human are constantly being redefined.

Childbirth has long been a subject that defies easy historical investigation - elusive, painful, enveloped in modesty and mystery, and resistant to disclosure. This book outlines how childbirth was described and represented in the West from the Middle Ages through the early modern period to the seventeenth century, before the medicalisation of obstetrical practice and the emergence of clinics.

Drawing on a wide and varied body of sources - including medical, legal, religious, and literary texts - the author reconstructs the practices associated with women in labour. As the focal point of collective attention, the parturient was surrounded by other women - midwives, relatives, and neighbours - reflecting the strong female solidarity fostered by childbirth, while also being attended by men such as her husband, a priest, and, in later periods, a surgeon. Adopting a broad diachronic perspective, the book highlights both elements of long-term continuity and the most significant changes in the early modern period.

The book is intended for a wide readership, while also serving the interests of scholars and students. Beyond those concerned with the history of childbirth, midwifery, and women, it will be relevant to readers engaged in the history of medicine, cultural anthropology, and cultural history.

Chapters investigate deep-rooted patriarchal norms, power relations, party control, social media dynamics and intersectional inequalities across local, national, party and online spaces. Country-specific case studies reflect how historical legacies, post-socialist transformations and gender quotas have shaped women's political participation. Overall, the book demonstrates that true equality requires profound cultural change, stronger democratic institutions and a long-term commitment to gender-sensitive politics.

Women's Representation in Southeast European Politics is a crucial resource for scholars and students of gender studies, feminist political theory, political science, European studies, and sociology. It will also benefit policymakers, international organizations and NGOs interested in deepening their understanding of gender equality, due to its insights into designing gender-sensitive reforms, developing advocacy strategies and improving institutional frameworks.

This book offers a vivid account of women's religiosity in Italy between 1400 and 1550, a crucial period of spiritual ferment and ecclesiastical change. Rather than focusing solely on institutions, this book brings to light the many ways in which women sought religious authority, pursued holiness, and contributed to broader hopes for renewal within the Church.

It examines the relationship between prophetic and political power in Italian Renaissance courts. Starting from an examination of the "living saints," charismatic figures venerated by the people for their abstinence and by princes for their prophetic virtues, it considers figures including Elena Duglioli, Margherita da Russi, and Gentile da Ravenna who were perceived as "divine mothers." It emphasizes women's active role in spiritual and cultural circles focused on scriptural study and Church reform, often guided by charismatic figures considered saints. The case of the "divine mother" Paola Antonia Negri is not discussed here, since it has already been examined by others, but the intense anger she faced from ecclesiastical and civil authorities exemplifies the change that took place in Italian religious life in the mid-16th century. "Living saints" and "divine mothers" became suspect, and the Council of Trent promoted a new model of holiness and initiated a process of disciplining cults. The volume also paves the way for a European comparative approach, building on the work of Spanish scholars and an initial transalpine perspective proposed by Alessandra Bartolomei Romagnoli.

Clear, engaging, and richly documented, this volume will appeal to scholars and students of early modern history, religious studies, women's and gender studies, and Italian cultural history, as well as to readers interested in the long history of women's religious agency.

Feminist Digital Methods redefines the role of methods in research, pedagogy, and activism in an increasingly digitized world. Grounded in intersectional feminist epistemologies, the volume challenges the neoliberal fetishization of "methodological rigor" over ethical and political accountability. It frames methods as situated, socially embedded enactments shaped by historical, cultural, and material contexts. Contributors-spanning early-career scholars, practitioners, and activists-critically reflect on the tools, platforms, and approaches they use, highlighting how feminist digital methods can interrogate power, dismantle systemic exclusions, and create transformative pathways for research and activism. With chapters on algorithmic bias, crip epistemologies, feminist data visualization, social media ethics, multispecies GIS, and feminist game design, the book bridges theoretical debates and actionable practice. It is a resource for anyone seeking to combine digital tools with feminist commitments to care, justice, and reciprocity.

Sophie de Grouchy: Great Women Thinkers provides a clear and comprehensive introduction to Sophie de Grouchy's intellectual and political work across her active years from 1786 to 1815.

Drawing on recent scholarship and newly uncovered archival materials, this entry in the Great Women Thinkers series situates Grouchy's innovative contributions within Revolutionary France. It explores her conviction that politics must be grounded in the sentiment of sympathy, tracing how this central idea shaped her reinterpretation of Republicanism, her interventions in debates on aesthetics, and her rethinking of rights. The book also shows how she adapted her philosophical voice to the constraints of her gender and historical moment by writing across multiple genres and forging intellectual collaborations.

Key themes include:

• sympathy as a political foundation
• a distinctive turn in Republican thought
• contributions to aesthetic philosophy
• an innovative approach to rights theory

Sophie de Grouchy: Great Women Thinkers is ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate students in History, Political Science, Philosophy, and Gender Studies. The book will also appeal to general readers interested in Grouchy's thought and women's intellectual history.

A Humanities Pedagogy Approach to Modern Masculinity examines how classroom-based practices from across the humanities can counter the anti-egalitarian narratives shaping contemporary manosphere discourse.

Drawing on 12 essays that traverse literature and related fields, this volume explores critical and empathetic pedagogical strategies that illuminate the socio-economic and cultural forces contributing to young men's growing alienation. By offering alternative narratives to the harmful ideals promoted by influential manosphere figures, the collection moves beyond theoretical critique to propose pragmatic, implementable approaches for educators teaching at primary, secondary, and university levels. Its contributions demonstrate how humanities pedagogy can foster inclusive understandings of masculinity while equipping students to question and resist exclusionary ideology.

A Humanities Pedagogy Approach to Modern Masculinity is essential reading for educators, researchers, and students in education, gender studies, and the humanities seeking effective frameworks to respond to the manosphere's expanding influence in diverse classroom contexts.

As a translation from L'aborto. Una storia, through the tools of political, social and cultural history, this volume traces the history of abortion practices in Italy through the 20th and 21st centuries.

In 1978 the Italian Parliament approved Law 194, decriminalising abortion practices with precise rules. The law marked a deep break with the past, repealing Title X of the fascist-era penal code. This volume talks about the past, going far beyond the mere history of the law, starting from an innovative periodisation that, while focusing on post-WWII Italy (to the present), highlights continuities and ruptures within the liberal age and particularly within the fascist regime.

History of Abortion in Italy: From Fascism to Present will be of appeal to historians of political history; historians of European fascisms; historians of criminology interested in comparative history, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students, and to readers interested in understanding abortion rights and reproductive health in a global dimension.

This book highlights the resilience and courage of Muslim women who have spoken out under challenging circumstances across history and geography. From the exploration of the Andalusian poet Wallada Bint al- Mustakfi in the Middle Ages to contemporary British diaspora writers, Afghani women, Chic Lit authors and playwrights, and discussions on Hindutva issues, this book showcases the diverse and persistent voices of Muslim women. The chapters in this book challenge the notion of women as subaltern by illustrating how Muslim women emerge as empowering figures socially, politically, and academically. Through essays that defend the veil as a symbol of identity and explore themes of rights and resistance, this collection is a testament to the indomitable spirit of Muslim women authors.

This constellation of essays is an essential resource for students, scholars, and general readers interested in feminist studies, post- colonial theory, and global literature. It is particularly relevant to those studying subaltern studies, gender studies, and Islamic culture. The essays span a wide range of subject areas, including historical perspectives on Arab women in the Middle Ages, contemporary British diaspora literature, Chic Lit, and political and social resistance in the context of Muslim women's lives. With its vast comparative scope, this collection offers valuable insights into the persistent voices of Muslim women across time and space.

Many of the chapters in this book were originally published in Women's Studies: An Interdisciplinary Journal and are now accompanied by four new chapters and an updated introduction.

Post-Separation Violence and Abuse in the Lives of Women and Children amplifies the voices of women and children to highlight the myriad issues encountered post-separation when perpetrators of domestic violence and abuse (DVA) continue to exert their control.

Despite increased scholarship on DVA and its consequences, post-separation violence and abuse remains an under-studied and written about issue. As the first book dedicated to the subject, this work frames post-separation violence and abuse as a continuum of DVA, too often overlooked and negated, and uses lived experiences to highlight the wide-ranging consequences it can have for women and children. Chapters offer detailed insights into the effects of harassment and stalking, femicide-homicide, the experiences of minoritised women and children, and a discussion of child contact as a form of post-separation violence and abuse. This volume also presents perpetrators' accounts, as well as consideration of what is required for rebuilding lives in the aftermath of post-separation violence and abuse.

This essential work will be of interest to a range of professionals and practitioners across the voluntary and statutory sectors, as well as scholars and students of social work, social policy, gender studies, criminology, and psychology.

This edited collection assembles a groundbreaking series of chapters from childhood and youth scholars investigating the ethical, political, and transformative possibilities that creative methodologies can bring to the field of gender and sexuality research.

Drawing on original empirical studies from a diverse array of international and transnational projects, contributors illustrate how they draw upon arts-based research and a wide range of creative methods, from body sculptures to zine-making, to engage children and young people at every stage of the research process, from a project's conception to its communication with diverse audiences. Each chapter foregrounds a particular method, and the central thread running through the book focuses on how gender and sexuality research with children and young people is configured, conducted and carries what matters into the world, when creativity is centred in the research process. As a collection, it will address the generative tensions and advantages of working creatively across various methods, disciplines and contexts.

The book will be of great interest to international audiences of academic scholars and students interested in arts-based and creative methods in diverse fields, including social research methods, childhood and youth studies, sociology of education, gender and sexuality studies, and queer studies, as well as practitioners, policy makers, and artists interested in advancing their creative work on gender and sexualities in childhood and youth.

This book reframes street vending beyond depictions of marginality or disorder, exploring how informal street vending works as a situated, negotiated, diverse, relational, and gendered practice within contested public spaces. Bringing together a critical review of scholarship with an assemblage-informed methodological framework, it positions informality as relational and spatially embedded, emerging through interactions among mobility, public space edges, pedestrian flows, governance, street life, and everyday survival.

Focusing on Tehran as a critical case, this book presents two detailed case studies. Through field observation, photographic survey, urban mapping, and archival research, it investigates how different types of street vending unfold in relation to mixed-use corridors and transit nodes. A typology grounded in mobility and proximity to public/private interfaces shows how certain forms of street vending enable economic resilience while contributing to street-level sociability and urban intensity.

The concluding discussion situates these findings within broader governance, political economy, and gender dynamics, addressing selective enforcement, institutional opacity, and women's uneven access to public space and the informal economy. This book will appeal to scholars and practitioners in urban design, planning, geography, and Middle Eastern studies seeking empirically grounded, critically reflexive insights into informality, public space, and the everyday politics of the city.

Contributors investigate complex interplays to explain how sexuality manifests across locations, time, cultures and contexts. They propose that sexuality is not merely a biological function, but a social construct that encompasses desire, identity and behavior. From the basis of desire to marriage and infidelity and from the construction of sexuality to fantasies and the future of sex, this Encyclopedia explores the diversity of sexual norms and practices across societies.

The Elgar Encyclopedia of Sex and Society is an essential resource for scholars and students of social policy, sociology, gender and sexuality. Government policymakers will similarly benefit from its actionable recommendations for fostering inclusion and diversity.

Key Features:

• Outlines how globalization has facilitated the exchange of sexual norms and practices
• Provides insight into how sexuality has shaped human history and continues to influence the world today
• Assesses the symbiotic relationship between sexuality and society across the public spheres of law, religion and media
• Evaluates how the global spread of LGBTQIA+ rights has met with both progress, as in the legalization of same-sex marriage, and backlash, evidenced by anti-gay legislation in parts of Africa and Eastern Europe

Leading authors in the field analyse precarity, the glass ceiling, definitions of excellence, work-life balance, the passion trap and the impact of 'publish or perish' cultures, revealing how gendered expectations and practices intersect with structural and cultural barriers. Drawing on the Horizon Europe project MINDtheGEPs, the book highlights key areas of cultural and structural resistance and innovation that challenge the 'fix the women' approach and promote systemic change. Chapters link macro, meso and micro levels of analysis within a gender-as-social-structure framework, underscoring the importance of feminist approaches in understanding and addressing inequalities and in redefining science as a collective, inclusive and ethical enterprise. The book ultimately advocates for gender-aware institutional transformation that fosters both equality and excellence.

Gender (In)equality in Research and Science is prime reading for scholars and students of gender studies, sociology, political science, and social policy. It is also relevant to higher education leaders, equality officers and policymakers for its concrete tools for transforming organisational gendered cultures and implementing and monitoring gender equality plans.

As screen scholars and practitioners grapple with growing expectations for onscreen diversity, this book examines how such expectations manifest through hidden production processes for queer stories in Australian scripted television.

Through analysis of 18 original interviews with Australian television industry professionals, along with political-economic, content, and textual analysis of queer television content from 2011-2021, this book demonstrates how Australian television's once-pervasive industry perceptions that queer stories would not appeal to broad audiences changed throughout the decade. It traces the lifecycle of scripted television projects across all stages of television production from development to distribution. This book examines how queer representations are negotiated by creatives and executives for distribution through mainstream television networks. While recent Australian hits, such as Heartbreak High (Netflix) and Deadloch (Amazon Prime Video) appear to support the common belief that streaming is driving onscreen diversity, this book reveals how the reality in Australia is much more interesting and complex. With a small and highly regulated television distribution market, a low uptake of cable, and a high proportion of public funding, Australia saw a boom of queer stories appearing in its television drama from 2011, four years before streaming entered the market.

This book is for screen scholars and industry practitioners, alike. It illuminates how Australia's television industry has changed in relation to queer stories appearing onscreen. Screen scholars will gain a deeper understanding of the industrial influences on diverse textual representations. New, emerging and established screen practitioners will develop new insights into how diverse stories are negotiated through the stages of production.
