BOOK EXCERPT:
This volume demonstrates how archaeological data viewed through the lens of gender studies can lead researchers to question and reformulate current models of household organization, subsistence and craft production, ritual performance, and the structure of ancient states. Challenges existing models of prehistoric society that assume the existence of rigidly binary gender systems Part of the Archaeological Papers of the American Anthropological Association Series

BOOK EXCERPT:
Examining gender in post-revolutionary Vietnam, focusing in particular on gender relations in both the family and state since the onset of economic reform in 1986, this book argues that, as in the socialist era, current gender relations bear the imprint of state gender policies and discourses.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Between 1700 and 1830, men and women in the English-speaking territories framing the Atlantic gained unprecedented access to material things. The British Atlantic was an empire of goods, held together not just by political authority and a common language, but by a shared material culture nourished by constant flows of commodities. Diets expanded to include exotic luxuries such as tea and sugar, the fruits of mercantile and colonial expansion. Homes were furnished with novel goods, like clocks and earthenware teapots, the products of British industrial ingenuity. This groundbreaking book compares these developments in Britain and North America, bringing together a multi-disciplinary group of scholars to consider basic questions about women, men, and objects in these regions. In asking who did the shopping, how things were used, and why they became the subject of political dispute, the essays show the profound significance of everyday objects in the eighteenth-century Atlantic world.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This study is an analysis of social anthropology and provides information on interaction and conflict in African society. Its findings are based on material obtained through personal interviews and by detailed observation of the lives of women and their husbands. The author sets out the nature, method and aims of these social and anthropological investigations. He gives details of the inequalities, conflicts, hostilities and aggression, within the gender relationship, by means of which the male community seeks to extend its influence far beyond the domestic arena. Also underlined is the role of women as mothers in the maintenance of the family unit and the acceptance of domestic responsibility. The book also analyses in-depth treatment of socio-economic change, gender values and social norms as well as Iraqw patriarchal ideology, religious thoughts and cultural values within a changing context. Consideration is also given to Iraqw rituals, marriage and domestic mores. The author shows how all these aspects can be understood through a realisation of the struggle for power existing between the heads of the households and their dependants. The reader is thus given an overall picture of the changes taking place in modern Iraqw society and the effect these changes have on male-female relationships within and without the family circle. Also discussed is the question of family and interethnic conflict management.

BOOK EXCERPT:
An analysis of relationships between men and women that benefits from the rich traditions of feminism and Marxism, and yet is free from the economic, political and other determinisms that have been so ubiquitous in those traditions. Drawing on new feminist and Marxian theories, the authors connect the relationships of class, gender and power inside modern households. The resulting new theory establishes the initimate arena of the household as a centrally important object of contemporary social analysis.
