Reviews

The clear strength of Gendering Globalization, Globalizing Gender is its extraordinary breadth, which reflects the theoretical and methodological sophistication of global gender studies as a field. --Kimberly A. Williams, Mount Royal University Every chapter is rooted in a feminist, queer, anti-colonial, anti-capitalist and Indigenous framework. The contributing scholars/activists write with great knowledge about their subject matter but their passionate commitment to a better world is what really resonates. --Mythili Rajiva, University of Ottawa
