Full Description
This four-volume encyclopedia set is organized to allow the reader to explore gender and politics from an updated interdisciplinary, intersectional, and global perspective. The organization format will be an A-Z approach of approximately 500-600 entries (with entries ranging in word count from 1,500-3,000 words, with some entries on foundational topics at around 5,000). Coverage will examine both the role gender plays within the realm of politics (political participation, leadership, etc.) as well as policies that are based in gender (abortion and reproductive policies, transgender rights, etc.).
Foundational topics will include entries such as "International Security and Gender," which will introduce gender and war, human trafficking, gender and militarism, and women and terrorism; and, "International Relations and Gender," which will introduce topics such as gender mainstreaming, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), and eco-feminism. A "Comparative Politics" foundational entry will focus on research areas surrounding political representation and participation, legislative processes, and law such as: gender quotas, gender gap in political participation and leadership, intersectionality (and barriers in representation and leadership), Ni Unos Menos/Not One Less Movement (recent significant activist movements), and transgender specific law. Concepts connected to feminist and queer theory as applied in regional studies will also be covered. For example, "marianismo" or the connection between Catholicism and gender roles in Latin American and Latinx communities, Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) voters and political mobilization, and LGBQTIA leaders and social movements will be included.
This encyclopedia will be essential for any undergraduate or graduate course on gender studies (in gender studies programs as well as sociology, political science, history or other related programs/disciplines), gender and politics, international relations and gender or area specific courses such as Gender and Latin American Politics or Gender and African Studies.
