Feminist Manifestos
A wide-reaching collection of groundbreaking feminist documents from around the world Feminist Manifestos is an unprecedented collection of 150 documents from feminist organizations and gatherings in over 50 countries over the course of three centuries. In the first book of its kind, the manifestos are shown to contain feminist theory and recommend actions for change, and also to expand our very conceptions of feminist thought and activism. Covering issues from political participation, education, religion and work to reproduction, violence, racism, and environmentalism, the manifestos together challenge simplistic definitions of gender and feminist movements in exciting ways. In a wide-rangi...
Hybridity and Ideology
Hybridity and Ideology analyzes the structure, development, and significance of political perspectives that mix or fuse the distinct beliefs, practices, and identities found in other ideologies—for example, hybrid worldviews such as liberal nationalism, ecosocialism, and anarchafeminism. Employing concepts and methods drawn from ideology studies, discourse theory, and cultural studies, Leonard Williams and Benjamin Franks explore the meaning of hybridity, the processes by which ideologies hybridize, and the political implications of the blended ideologies that result. Their hybrid inquiry fashions a theoretical vocabulary and framework for understanding and studying ideological hybridizati...
The Routledge Companion to Architectural Pedagogies of the Global South
The established canon of architectural pedagogy has been predominantly produced within the Northern hemisphere and transposed – or imposed – across schools within the Global South, more often, with scant regard for social, economic, political or ecological culture and context, nor regional or indigenous pedagogic principles and practices. Throughout the Global South, architecture’s academic community has been deeply affected by this regime, how it shapes and influences proto-professionals and by implication architectural processes and outcomes, too. The Routledge Companion to Architectural Pedagogies of the Global South resituates and recenters an array of pedagogic approaches that are...
Lifting as We Climb
For African American women, the fight for the right to vote was only one battle. This Coretta Scott King Author Honor book tells the important, overlooked story of black women as a force in the suffrage movement--when fellow suffragists did not accept them as equal partners in the struggle. Susan B. Anthony. Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Alice Paul. The Women's Rights Convention at Seneca Falls. The 1913 Women's March in D.C. When the epic story of the suffrage movement in the United States is told, the most familiar leaders, speakers at meetings, and participants in marches written about or pictured are generally white. That's not the real story. Women of color, especially African American women,...
Feminisms
How has feminism developed? What have feminists achieved? What can we learn from the global history of feminism? Feminism is the ongoing story of a profound historical transformation. Despite being repeatedly written off as a political movement that has achieved its aim of female liberation, it has been continually redefined as new generations of women campaign against the gender inequity of their age. In this absorbing book, historian Lucy Delap challenges the simplistic narrative of 'feminist waves' - a sequence of ever more progressive updates - showing instead that feminists have been motivated by the specific concerns of their historical moment. Drawing on an extraordinary range of examples from Japan to Russia, Egypt to Germany, Delap explores different feminist projects to show that those who are part of this movement have not always agreed on a single programme. This diverse history of feminism, she argues, can help us better navigate current debates and controversies. A tour de force from an award-winning expert, Feminisms shows that a rich relationship to the past can infuse today's activism with a sense possibility and inspiration.
Persuasive Acts
In June 2015, Bree Newsome scaled the flagpole in front of South Carolina’s state capitol and removed the Confederate flag. The following month, the Confederate flag was permanently removed from the state capitol. Newsome is a compelling example of a twenty-first-century woman rhetor, along with bloggers, writers, politicians, activists, artists, and everyday social media users, who give new meaning to Aristotle’s ubiquitous definition of rhetoric as the discovery of the “available means of persuasion.” Women’s persuasive acts from the first two decades of the twenty-first century include new technologies and repurposed old ones, engaged not only to persuade, but also to tell their...
Deutungsmacht in Krisenzeiten
In den letzten Jahren ist der Krisenmodus zum Normalfall geworden. Finanzkrise, Flüchtlingskrise, Corona-Krise, weltweite Krise der Demokratie - es dürfte Einigkeit darüber bestehen, dass die damit angesprochenen Probleme akut sind. Wie diese Krisen zu deuten sind und wie ihnen sachgerecht zu begegnen ist, darüber allerdings gehen die Meinungen auseinander. Und weil im Krisenfall immer ein erhöhter Handlungsdruck besteht, kommt es zur Verschärfung und Polarisierung der öffentlichen Debatten. Diese Debatten sind nichts anderes als Kämpfe um die Deutungsmacht, an denen sich auch Populisten und Verschwörungstheoretiker gern beteiligen. Der Band versammelt Beiträge aus den theologische...
Femminismi
La storia dei movimenti femministi è tutt'ora in corso: generazione dopo generazione, nei diversi momenti storici e nelle differenti situazioni sociali, politiche e culturali, le donne hanno più volte ridefinito i loro obiettivi nella lotta per la parità di genere. Attingendo a un'enorme quantità di fatti, Lucy Delap mostra i molteplici volti del femminismo, raccontando come, dal Giappone alla Russia, dall'Egitto alla Germania, le rivendicazioni femministe non abbiano riguardato solo una minoranza di donne bianche e colte dal Novecento in poi, ma siano un fenomeno globale. Femminismi offre uno sguardo nuovo su un movimento che parla ancora al nostro presente. E al futuro che vogliamo costruire.

Gender Studies im Dialog
Wie sind die Entwicklungen der Gender Studies vor dem Hintergrund ihrer Historie zu verstehen? Die Beiträger*innen des Bandes diskutieren diese Frage in drei thematischen Blöcken: Biografische Reflexionen treffen auf politische, künstlerische sowie wissenschaftliche Interventionen und stellen so das Potential der Disziplin heraus. Die einzelnen Beiträge entsprechen Schlaglichtern, die sowohl Dis- als auch Kontinuitäten der Diskurse beleuchten. Die dadurch entstehenden Synergieeffekte bestätigen die Notwendigkeit eines entgrenzenden Dialogs im Fach, transdisziplinär wie transnational.
