The Routledge Handbook of Gender in Central-Eastern Europe and Eurasia

This Handbook is the key reference for contemporary historical and political approaches to gender in Central-Eastern Europe and Eurasia. Leading scholars examine the region’s highly diverse politics, histories, cultures, ethnicities, and religions, and how these structures intersect with gender alongside class, sexuality, coloniality, and racism. Comprising 51 chapters, the Handbook is divided into six thematic parts:
Part I Conceptual debates and methodological differences
Part II Feminist and women’s movements cooperating and colliding
Part III Constructions of gender in different ideologies
Part IV Lived experiences of individuals in different regimes
Part V The ambiguous postcommunist transitions
Part VI Postcommunist policy issues
With a focus on defining debates, the collection considers how the shared experiences, especially communism, affect political forces’ organization of gender through a broad variety of topics including feminisms, ideology, violence, independence, regime transition, and public policy.
It is a foundational collection that will become invaluable to scholars and students across a range of disciplines including Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and Central-Eastern European and Eurasian Studies.

Nőmozgalmak nyugaton és keleten

A nõk hátrányos társadalmi helyzete bizonyított tény. Nemzetközi Statisztikák szerint a világon megtermelt jövedelmek tizedét kapják a nõk, holott a munka kétharmadát végzik. Mivel a házimunka és a gyermek-nevelés a patriarchális társadalmakban nagyrészt a nõk feladata, így õk kevésbé vesznek részt a pénzzel és társadalmi presztízzsel járó feladatok ellátásában.

Domestic Violence in Postcommunist States: Local Activism, National Policies, and Global Forces

Domestic violence has emerged as a significant public policy issue of transnational character and mobilization in the postcommunist era in Europe and Eurasia, as global forces have interacted with the agendas of governments, local and international women’s groups, and human rights activists. The result of extensive collaboration among scholars and activist-practitioners—many from postcommunist countries—this volume examines the development of state policies, changes in public perceptions, and the interaction of national and international politics.

Rebellious Parents: Parental Movements in Central-Eastern Europe and Russia

Parental activism movements are strengthening around the world and often spark tense personal and political debate. With an emphasis on Russia and Central and Eastern Europe, this collection analyzes formal organizations as well as informal networks and online platforms which mobilize parents to advocate for change on a grassroots level. In doing so, the work collected here explores the interactions between the politics, everyday life, and social activism of mothers and fathers. From fathers’ rights movements to natural childbirth to vaccination debates, these essays provide new insight into the identities and strategies applied by these movements as they confront local ideals of gender and family with global ideologies.
