Feminist Foreign Policy in Theory and in Practice

Feminist Foreign Policy in Theory and in Practice

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

nidottu
Feminist Foreign Policy in Theory and in Practice outlines the foundations of feminist foreign policy and the fundamental concepts discussed and utilized by governments, civil society organizations, and those in the academic community as they define, formulate, and implement it.This book furthers the global conversation around how countries can develop and execute approaches to foreign policy and national security that go beyond conflict prevention and resolution and use a feminist or gender lens to increase gender equality and women's leadership in the security sector. It reviews how governments have implemented feminist foreign, development, and trade policies at the multilateral and national levels, and sets forth the unique global role of the U.S. government, using case studies to discuss what would be needed to implement a feminist foreign policy in the U.S. The authors provide a roadmap, stressing the necessity of applying a gender analysis and perspective to all peace and security decision-making and involving women in all aspects of conflict prevention and resolution, peacebuilding, post-conflict reconstruction, and humanitarian relief. They tie together the movements for human rights, women’s rights, feminism, and peace and security, highlighting how each of these strands brings key perspectives to the study of foreign policy.This book complements the study of the women, peace, and security agenda. It will be of great use to practitioners, including government officials, addressing issues of foreign policy, multilateral and bilateral engagement, and the promotion of gender equality and social inclusion. It will also be of interest to students and scholars of foreign policy, security studies, international relations, gender studies, development, governance, and political science.

Against the Grain: A 1950s Memoir

Against the Grain: A 1950s Memoir

When E.A. (Archie) Markham came to London in 1956 from his native Monserrat, his ambitions were to make it as a writer or pop singer, and at the same time, fulfil family expectations to become a scholar and academic. Unfortunately, the young Archie's attempts to combine elements of Little Richard and the now forgotten Jim Dale never found the success he was convinced they deserved, and it has been in less lucrative fields that Markham established his reputation as a 'nimble-footed, silver-tongued' poet, critic and fiction writer. His memoirs begin with a return to post-volcanic Montserrat to rediscover the now abandoned village of Harris and his grandmother's old house, and his meticulous and moving reconstruction of his boyhood in that house - a grand house that made the family feel that settling in the then working-class district of Maida Vale was a distinctly 'downwards' move for a cultivated Caribbean family. And, it is Markham's wryly humorous navigation between the poles of his family's confident sense of their worth and the racial bigotry they encountered that makes his account of his travails in the rag-trade, his pop-singer ambitions, the discovery that they were living next door to a leading member of the British Union of Fascists, and his involvement with the 'angry-young-men' shifts in 1950's British culture such a rewarding and human document.

New technology in vehicles is transforming the way people move around as well as what they do in their vehicles. How does one communicate with an in-car speech system and how does this vary by language or cultural community? This book explores this process by focusing on the communication practices that people engage in when using their in-car systems and when talking about their vehicles with co-passengers. Chapters present a robust theory and methodology for studying communication in cars, how tasks are begun and ended, how people switch between tasks, how non-task talk appears, what ways and styles of communication drivers prefer, and how they expect the system voice to respond, among other things. Particular attention is given to cultural preferences as they are evident in this communication; these preferences are found to ground various trajectories in the use and meaning of in-car communication practices. The book explores these matters with a focus on the United States and Mainland China. Implications are drawn for the design and utilization of in-car communication systems.
