This Palgrave Pivot offers insight into the factors that influence, motivate and inform young men's online experiences. In Australia and globally recent media and public discourse has expressed strong concerns about the gender-based harms arising from young men's online behaviours - these concerns have prompted renewed scrutiny on boys and masculinity and produced a sense of urgency around addressing these online harms. They have provided a strong warrant for research that seeks to better understand how young men are navigating their online worlds. This book presents findings from a qualitative study of 117 young men in Australia. In foregrounding a diversity of young men's voices, the book responds to calls for more nuance and care in how we debate the gendered impact of social media on young men's lives. As such we highlight the tensions and complexities in how young men navigate negative and positive online experiences including their critical engagement with harmful content. Against this backdrop, the book presents a case for fostering young men's critical digital dispositions towards more gender just engagements online. It provides a conceptual framework and series of activities for fostering these dispositions. The book will be of interest to students and researchers in critical masculinity studies, sociology, psychology, public health, and media and internet studies, as well as practitioners who work with young men.

Malesevic, Gordana (ed.), Challenges for Chinese Women in The Early Twenty-first Century. 390 pp. 2025:11 (World Scientific, SI) <754-758>
ISBN 978-981-9814-93-0 hard ¥29,297.- (税込) US$ 138.00

This anthology explores the causes and consequences of persistent gender-based inequalities in contemporary China. Through 13 chapters, it examines how gender inequality is shaped, reinforced, questioned and worked around in early 21st century China. This book covers areas such as the welfare system, labour market, land rights and divorce - areas in which equality between men and women is still inadequate in law and practice. The book also offers insight in less-explored areas such as the legal and bureaucratic rights of diverse families, migration and split households, grassroots labour organising and self-determination and equality in the pursuit of Chinese socialist feminism. The introduction highlights the enduring role of the household registration system (hukou) as a tool to exercise power, control and coercion. Since the hukou system is based on households rather than individuals, it remains a powerful source of institutionalised reproduction of hierarchical power relations (i.e. patriarchal values). While focused on contemporary China, the introduction also situates gender inequality within a global context, showing how gender inequality is shaped and reinforced globally in the early 21st century.

Kuhar, Roman / Zaharijevic, Adriana (eds.), Anti-Gender Mobilizations in the Post-Yugoslav Space. (Global Queer Politics) 190 pp. 2025:11 (Palgrave Macmillan, UK) <754-662>
ISBN 978-3-031-92412-5 hard ¥29,696.- (税込) EUR 119.99

The book sheds light on the diverse forms of anti-gender mobilization in the post-Yugoslav space by exploring its historical trajectories, cultural variances, and different religious frames. It offers a meticulous comparative analysis of seven post-socialist countries that shared a common history, which collapsed through wars and through their different paths to "Europeanisation." Gender scholars and activists have never ceased to build and rebuild ties across the new borders, fighting for freedom of speech, human rights and against their local nationalisms. Today, however, it is precisely the ultraconservative forces that speak the same language of rights but with diametrically opposing illiberal goals. The fiercest opponents in all other respects, the post-Yugoslav ultraconservatives agree that the major threat lies in the specter of "gender." This volume tells a story about gender as a post-Yugoslav "symbolic glue." This volume advances knowledge in the area of anti-gender mobilizations and offers helpful insights for academics, researchers, and policymakers alike.

Ingram, Caroline, Women on Trial: Criminal Trials in Colonial Western Australia. (Palgrave Histories of Policing, Punishment and Justice) 220 pp. 2025:10 (Palgrave Macmillan, UK) <754-548>
ISBN 978-3-031-98071-8 hard ¥32,171.- (税込) EUR 129.99

This book considers how legal rules and institutions affected the outcome of women's trials in nineteenth century Western Australia and how this was mediated by various social and cultural constructs. It uses numerous case studies to determine the effect of legal representation, co-accused status, Aboriginality and mercy on the outcome of these women's trials. The stories of these mainly working-class women, often traced through trials records and witness depositions, also illuminates the challenges and pitfalls of their lives, the survival strategies they used to navigate these and the pathways that led them to be charged with serious crime. Western Australia offers a different set of conditions for examining female criminality. Its small population meant that women committing crime often became well-known identities within their communities and may have been known, at least by reputation, to the limited number of men eligible for jury duty. Western Australia's low population meant that the number of lawyers practising in the colony was small and that few judges were appointed. During this period Western Australia also created separate laws to apply only to Aboriginal defendants meaning that Aboriginal women became subject to different laws to non-Aboriginal women. The book examines how, and why, some women appeared to receive a more lenient outcome, whereas others were less fortunate. Despite the all-male nature of the criminal justice system in which they appeared, some women appeared to possess a degree of legal literacy which allowed them to use the system to achieve a more favourable outcome in court. This book will be of interest to scholars of criminology, as well as those interested in the history of crime, Western Australian history and the history of the criminal justice system in Australia.

Kukla, Quill R., Sex Beyond "Yes": Pleasure and Agency for Everyone. (A Norton Short) 176 pp. 2025:9 (Norton, US) <754-45>
ISBN 978-1-324-06492-3 hard ¥5,095.- (税込) US$ 24.00

Today's conversations about sex often focus on consent-who has given it, when one has it and how to get it. However, good, fulfilling sex requires more than securing a "yes" from a partner. It requires a variety of kinds of communication, as well as social circumstances that support sexual agency and pleasure. In Sex Beyond "Yes", Quill R. Kukla explores what sexual agency is and how it can be enabled or hindered. Kukla reimagines pleasurable, ethical sex beyond the constraints of commodification, patriarchal and heterocentric social scripts, ableism, and puritanical and stigmatising attitudes toward sex. This book addresses the complexities of desire and the importance of creating an environment that prioritises respect, communication and joy. Centring pleasure and agency, it encourages conversations and social changes that can make good sex accessible to all.

Johnson, Rebecca / McKenzie, Debra / Napoleon, Val et al., Ravens Talking: Indigenous Feminist Legal Studies. 277 pp. 2025:12 (U. Toronto Pr., CN) <754-478>

While awareness of the sexual and gendered colonial violence faced by Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQI+ people has grown, the field of Indigenous law and beyond has yet to fully engage with Indigenous feminisms, gender, and sexuality in a sustained way. Ravens Talking challenges this gap, treating Indigenous feminisms as essential, insightful, and deeply transformative. Through critical feminist analyses, this book examines key issues in Indigenous law, demonstrating how legal understandings shift when gender is consistently, meaningfully, and creatively engaged. The contributors to this collection confront the forms of power shaping these essential conversations and bring to the fore intergenerational Indigenous feminisms; Indigenous law and gender; the forms of expression and translation between and across legal and political worlds; and the rich array of disagreements and conflicts between Indigenous women. Ravens Talking intends to capture the complexities arising from Indigenous feminisms in living contexts to provoke questions and develop critical perspectives. Both intellectually rigorous and practically grounded, Ravens Talking is a vital contribution encouraging dialogue on Indigenous legal traditions, justice, and sovereignty.

In the context of a global backlash against both migrant and LGBTIQA+ rights , this book critically examines the experiences of LGBTIQA+ people within the UK asylum system. The book draws on interviews with refugees, legal practitioners and charity workers to analyse the systemic challenges faced by LGBTIQA+ people seeking asylum. By blending empirical data and critical theory, the text highlights the contradictions between the UK's purportedly LGBTIQA+ inclusive narratives and its treatment of sexually diverse refugees, offering insights for researchers, practitioners and policy makers on the pressures facing LGBTIQA+ people within the asylum system.

Even before they were recognized as citizens of the United States, Black women understood that the fights for civil and human rights were inseparable. Over the course of two hundred years, they were at the forefront of national and international movements for social change, weaving connections between their own and others' freedom struggles around the world. Without Fear tells how, during American history, Black women made humans rights theirs: from worldwide travel and public advocacy in the global Black press to their work for the United Nations, they courageously and effectively moved human rights beyond an esoteric concept to an active, organizing principle. Acclaimed historian Keisha N. Blain tells the story of these women-from the well-known, like Ida B. Wells, Madam C. J. Walker, and Lena Horne, to those who are still less known, including Pearl Sherrod, Aretha McKinley, and Marguerite Cartwright. Blain captures human rights thinking and activism from the ground up with Black women at the center, working outside the traditional halls of power. By shouldering intersecting forms of oppression-including racism, sexism, and classism-Black women have long been in a unique position to fight for freedom and dignity. Without Fear is an account of their aspirations, strategies, and struggles to pioneer a human rights approach to combating systems of injustice.

For author Janna Klostermann, reaching her limits and resigning from care work felt like a crisis of self. In the aftermath of this upheaval, this is the book she needed to write. At the Limits of Care is a book that will change how you think about care work and about the women who provide it. Now an assistant professor in sociology and a radical care scholar, Klostermann interrogates women's counter-stories of reaching their limits, crossing ethical lines, and stepping back from paid or unpaid care work roles. She weaves feminist sociological analyses with memoir to challenge dominant narratives around women and care, transforming the ways we think about ourselves and our relationships. The book makes a major contribution in how and what constitutes care research. Drawing on in-depth life history interviews with women ages twenty-seven to seventy-eight in Ontario, Canada, Klostermann enacts a "counter politics of care" approach that centres untold and lesser-told stories of care work. She pushes readers to rethink gendered power dynamics, question prevailing tropes of care, and imagine more equitable, emancipatory futures.

Burnett, Scott / Vigo, Francesca (eds.), Battlefield Linguistics: Queer, Trans, and Feminist Interventions in Linguistic and Discursive Change. (Critical Approaches in Applied Linguistics 9) 450 S. 2025:12 (de Gruyter Mouton, GW) <754-1099>
ISBN 978-3-11-135141-4 hard ¥29,686.- (税込) EUR 119.95

This volume addresses the politicization of linguistic features indexing sexual and gender non-normativity at the phonological, morphological, and discursive levels. In the context of masculinist, heteronormative, and transphobic backlash around the world, these groundbreaking studies adopt queer, trans, and feminist linguistic perspectives to examine how normativity is resisted and identity is stylized, negotiated, and reproduced in everyday text and talk. Part 1 focuses on self-determination/identification through phonetic and other resources. Part 2 focuses on debates over language reform and change. Part 3 examines the contestation of gender ideology using critical linguistic analytical tools.

Liberation and Libido delves into the vibrant, messy, and deeply political history of gay liberation in Canada, exploring how The Body Politic (TBP) shaped and challenged ideas of gay male masculinity - and gender more broadly - between 1971 and 1987. As one of Canada's largest lesbian and gay activist periodicals, TBP was a lively forum where people debated, defended, and dismantled notions of gender. It also shed light on the divergent representations of masculinity - some reinforcing queer patriarchal ideas of whiteness, race, health, disability, and class, while others challenged and pushed back against the status quo. Through an in-depth exploration into TBP's images, advertisements, letters, classified ads, and editorial content, Hrynyk unravels how shifting attitudes on masculinity, race, class, ability, and health played out on its pages. Two guiding frameworks underpin this analysis: queer patriarchy, which highlights the dominance of whiteness and masculinity within gay male spaces, and queer style, which captures the playful, rebellious manner in which queer culture appropriated and rejected mainstream gender and sexual norms. This book presents TBP not simply as an activist newspaper but rather as a battleground where masculinity was contested, reshaped, and reimagined. From radical manifestos to steamy personal ads, every page of TBP reflected the push-and-pull between liberation and assimilation, activism and commerce. Liberation and Libido invites readers to reevaluate our understanding of masculinity, power, and desire in the context of queer resistance in Canadian history.

Queerness remains one of the most stigmatized and overlooked aspects of Holocaust history, often erased due to the lingering homophobia of survivors. People Without History Are Dust challenges this silence, weaving together compelling stories of German, Dutch, Czech, and Polish Jewish Holocaust victims and survivors - including Anne Frank, Molly Applebaum, Margot Heuman, and Gad Beck - whose experiences help illuminate the hidden history of queerness in a time of genocide. Drawing on extensive archival research, this groundbreaking book uncovers the lives of those who were doubly marginalized, not only persecuted as Jews but also as queer individuals. In doing so, it confronts the ways in which history has excluded or minimized their experiences, urging us to question normative accounts of the Holocaust. By shedding light on these long-overlooked stories, People Without History Are Dust deepens our understanding of identity, survival, and memory, reminding us why an inclusive and complex approach to history is essential - not just for the sake of the past, but in service to the present and the future as well.

Highlighting the interdisciplinary innovations feminism brought to the field, this is a vital exploration of the lasting impact of generations of scholars on European and global gender studies.

ISBN 978-3-031-98940-7 hard ¥42,071.- (税込) EUR 169.99

This edited book explores the role of higher education management during crises and analyses the responses and gendered consequences for women in particular. Contributions adopt multidimensional, multilevel and intersectional approaches to gender inequalities to better understand power relations as expressed through institutional and cultural change processes. The chapters explore the ways in which crises play out and the extent to which they undermine, ratify or reconfigure gender relations in higher education. Contributing authors from different geographical locations also reflect on how higher education management conceives of gender when responding to crisis, as well as the consequences of a binary approach and related essentialism. The book will be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of higher education, gender studies and organisation and management studies, and higher education leadership and policy makers.

ISBN 978-3-031-97813-5 hard ¥32,171.- (税込) EUR 129.99

This book explores the evolving role of women in Georgian society through the lens of food and cooking. Drawing on ethnographic research in Ozurgeti, it reveals how domestic practices serve as powerful expressions of female agency. From the 19th century to the post-Soviet era, Georgian women have used food to navigate socio-economic crises, reshape family structures, and preserve cultural identity. The book combines feminist anthropology and food studies to challenge assumptions about women's roles in traditional societies. By focusing on everyday acts of sustenance, it offers a nuanced view of how women actively shape both private and public life. A vital contribution to gender studies, anthropology, and post-Soviet research, this book enhances our understanding of food as a site of social change.

Superhero Black Widow/ Natasha Romanov has endured more than 60 years in the Marvel Universe before becoming a prominent character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with the Avengers; however, this volume examines how this woman character has mostly been underestimated and hypersexualized. The overview and analysis explore the contradiction between Black Widow's enduring popularity and the limited commitment to her solo series and character development in print. This discussion centers Black Widow as a representation of the inadequate care and commitment given to women characters in mainstream superhero comics.

Viljoen, Jeanne-Marie, Comics and Women's Mental Health: Five Stories. (Palgrave Studies in Comics and Graphic Novels) 142 pp. 2025:10 (Palgrave Macmillan, UK) <754-1032>
ISBN 978-3-031-98264-4 hard ¥9,896.- (税込) EUR 39.99

This book discusses five recent, hand-drawn, comics memoirs of women's mental health experiences, not easily captured in words alone. It deals with a range of mental health experiences that are not simply diagnoseable mental disorders, and do not always stem from visible physical conditions (heavy feelings, loneliness, postpartum depression, grief, schizophrenia and suicide). Yet, by also considering the formal qualities of these stories, it is able to focus on embodied aspects of experience, inflecting these with perspectives from a range of women of various ages, sexualities, genders, races and cultures. This book demonstrates how comics are an effective, interdisciplinary means of communicating women's mental health and wellbeing.

ISBN 978-1-3995-1479-8 hard ¥26,037.- (税込) GB￡ 90.00

This book offers new perspectives on two key themes: the criminal law of sexual consent and the temporalities of law. It uses detailed feminist analysis to investigate how the kinds of time produced by statutes and court decisions are vital to constructing the gendered, liberal, legal subject. By shedding light upon a contested and multi-faceted legal issue, it demonstrates that more expansive temporalities are the precondition for a richer, relational understanding of consent. This book's fresh approach to sexual consent is developed using the law of England and Wales but is relevant to all jurisdictions where consent is an element of sexual offences law. Its distinctive approach to legal temporalities has the potential to be applied to other areas of law, providing insight into both current law and possibilities for reform.

This book presents an extensive study of women's involvement in agricultural activities at the family level in rural Bangladesh, with a particular emphasis on their participation in decision-making. The authors examine the extent to which women are involved in decision-making regarding agricultural practices at family level. In addition to examining women's contributions to various agricultural tasks, the research expands its scope to include discussions on gender inequality and empowerment, integrating these concepts into the decision-making framework. The authors argue that true participation should not only address the involvement of women in agriculture but also consider their influence on decision-making processes. They stress the importance of factors such as autonomy, control over resources, and self-confidence, which play a crucial role in shaping women's decision-making ability within the family. Moreover, the research identifies several key barriers to participation, including entrenched patriarchal norms, societal cultural expectations, and institutional challenges, which hinder women's active involvement in decision-making. The authors advocate for policy reforms and institutional changes to address these challenges, urging government bodies to align policies with their recommendations. The book provides valuable insights for policymakers, government officials, and NGOs working to promote gender-based approach and improve women's empowerment in rural communities.

Detailing the contemporary obstacles and battles that marginalized groups must fight, this handbook provides a comprehensive account that enables readers to understand the harmful nature of these issues and how they serve to place and keep marginalized groups at a disadvantage.The Routledge Handbook on Marginalized Groups in the United States and their Challenges covers the belief systems, social and economic systems, political institutions, and public policies that aim to place and keep marginalized groups at a disadvantage, describing the intractable nature of these barriers, how inequality and inequity persist, why changing the status quo is so difficult, and why efforts to change the status quo seem not to bear results. The chapters in this book assess the cultural controversies and provide case studies to highlight the argument that social and economic systems, political institutions, public policies, and state governments sustain the status quo, offering essential insights into the ways that racism and sexism have pernicious effects on people of color, women, the LGBTQIA+ community, immigrants, people with disabilities, and the poor.This volume is the most comprehensive book of its kind because of its wide-ranging interdisciplinary approach, featuring the leading voices and writers dealing with these very crucial matters. This handbook will be a standard reference for students, instructors, and researchers across sociology, political science, cultural studies, disability studies, race and ethnicity studies, and gender and sexuality studies.

Intersectional Intimacy: Identity Work of Racialized Women in Online Dating Cultures is the first book to examine both shared and divergent stories from those who identify as women with race-related experiences navigating online dating cultures, and to explore how their experience of intimate relationships is mediated by the apps.While many women turn to dating apps in search of intimacies, their navigations are continuously mediated and challenged by hierarchies of race, gender, class, and sexuality embedded in online dating cultures. This book traces the ongoing and layered processes through which racialized women develop their stories of online intimacies by making use of their identities and further cultivate their subjectivities. It also addresses the global dimensions of these practices, illustrating how global and local power structures intersect with personal experience, afforded by the popularity of dating apps, and how these readings change with their mobility.Intersectional Intimacy will be an essential text for students of Gender Studies, Sociology, and Politics, as well as those interested in Race, Media Studies, Digital Culture, and Communications.

This book documents the lived experiences of women and nonbinary people who came out as queer in middle age, often after long heterosexual marriages. Using a survey and in-depth interviews, it documents the experiences of way-later-in-life sapphics as they come out, navigate dating apps, and join LGBTQIA+ communities on social media. The author complements this analysis by exploring their own experience coming out as queer and nonbinary in my 50s after a 22-year relationship with their ex-husband. They explore the role digital media-social media, online communities, and dating apps-played in supporting and complicating the process of self-discovery and coming out. This volume stands as a subversive statement-"We're here, we're queer, get used to it"-against the threats on LGBTQIA+ rights in the United States.

The Archaeological Challenge of Gender asks, what do we know about the relations between men and women in past societies, and on what basis is this knowledge built? Although sources of data are meagre and often indirect, this book plays particular attention to exploring gender relations in a way that acknowledges its complexity. Contributors show how difficult questions on gender relationships in past societies are, avoiding preconceived ideas and naive reasoning. The book starts with a grounding introduction that takes readers through questions such as: what is gender archaeology? What are its objectives and methods, but also its shortcomings and dead ends? How can social anthropology contribute to our knowledge of the gender relations of disappeared societies? In what way have these real or, more often, supposed gender relations been put at the service of a discourse on the present society? Chapters then tackle specific themes using case studies from around the globe that highlight common issues, controversy and methodological problems. Taking a critical approach and addressing the way knowledge is constructed in this field, this book is for students and researchers in Archaeology, Anthropology and Gender Studies.

A wholly new perspective on the importance of gardens and agriculture on the Chacoan world, establishing the female dominated gardeners as the basis of Chacoan culture. Author David E. Stuart digs beyond the standard archaeological examination of structures, tools, and rituals of the age to provide a more rounded view of this remarkable culture. An original look at the gardens and gardeners of the Chacoan World, internationally acclaimed ethno-anthropologist David E. Stuart's Ancient Women Gardeners: Prelude to the Chacoan World explores the ecological, demographic, and human dynamics that led to Chaco's rise and fall from its early beginnings in the 500s AD to its decline during the 1100s AD. The Chacoan system represents North America's earliest form of an emergent urban ecology. From its outset, Chacoan farm nodes consisted of widely scattered clusters of gardens connected by roads, way stations, and district granaries. Chaco's women gardeners fueled powerful growth that was eventually aborted as unforeseen dynamics barred the path to long-term sustainability. Stuart considers the intersection of population growth, agricultural yields, crop and soil possibilities, the caloric cost of labor, the corrosive role of pellagra, iron-deficiency anemia, the power of dietary protein in population dynamics, and the limitations imposed by early growth in the San Juan Basin-a land of poor soils, unpredictable rainfall, and rapidly declining wild vegetal foods and game. Focusing on the Chacoan landscape, farming techniques, and a world in which clusters of individual gardening families played a key role in creating an incipient urbanism in the Southwest, Stuart argues that without these accomplished gardening families and their agricultural innovations, there never would have been a "Chaco Phenomenon."

Forced Migration, Masculinities, and Vulnerabilities in the Mediterranean explores the role of intersectional power hierarchies and the social reproduction of vulnerability in shaping forced migrant men's embodied realities of suffering along the Central Mediterranean migration route (CMR), which connects Sub-Saharan Africa to Sicily via Libya. Based on life history interviews and observational research collected from Sub-Saharan international protection-holders and seekers in Sicily, the book expands our understanding of the violence-migration nexus by exploring refugee men's gendered mobilities. Participants' narratives of gendered embodiment within the trans-Mediterranean illegality industry are used to shed light on the violence continuum produced by their marginalised position within locally salient hierarchies of masculinities across different migration stages. Following the ethnographic encounter between the researcher and participants in the racialised landscape of the Mediterranean migration 'crisis', the performance of competent manhood emerges as a crucial narrative site where forced migrant men can contest their protracted experiences of marginalisation and reclaim subjectivity. Overall, the book views the relationships between forced migration, masculinities, and vulnerabilities as a locus which reveals participants' neglected social welfare needs and demands in postcolonial Europe.Forced Migration, Masculinities, and Vulnerabilities in the Mediterranean appeals to those with research interests in migration, gender, sexuality, postcoloniality, race, ethnicity, European studies and humanitarianism.

Experience tells us, and studies confirm, that women faculty of color are among the most overworked, unfairly criticized, and least rewarded individuals serving higher education today. They are also the most thwarted when it comes to the basic goals of an academic career: tenure, security, and personal satisfaction. This, despite ranking as some of the most talented teachers we have: Women faculty of color disproportionately overdeliver on higher education's loftiest promise - preparing students to contribute to the world. In this book, these highly effective, overworked, underappreciated women will find expert guidance, encouragement, and practical steps to meet the outsized challenges women of color face in academia, and finally get what they 39 ve long since earned. In Empowered, Chavella T. Pittman distills decades of practice to show women faculty of color how to be unapologetically authentic in their teaching, speak up in reviews about their classroom excellence, and to offer themselves compassion. And, to recover a sense of joy in what they do. Drawing on extensive research, Pittman provides active measures for withstanding intersectional race and gender tensions, exercises to inoculate against toxic dynamics, and tools to resist being silenced and support being heard. Through these empowering strategies and exercises, women faculty of color can become the most powerful versions of themselves in their classrooms, and go on to make the most of their careers, contributions, and lives.

Multiraciality is not an identity to be fractured or abstracted by others, but rather integrated across multiple racial locations. Multiraciality is sophisticated and its weaving of complexity into forging new congruence posits new ways to understand identity. Multiraciality disrupts monoracial constructs and can be disorienting to others who are unable to have sufficient knowledge of self to be able to conceptualize that other persons occupy multiple racial locations across broader systems of culture and identity domains. Multiraciality is to be celebrated, explored, and made visible. Thus, this text is also reflected of different author identities and from the different academic disciplines of education, sociology, and counseling.
