Reviews
Description
Despite being over 20 years into the 21st century, social inequality is a persistent problem around the world, with historical, cultural, and economic roots perpetuated by social norms and expectations. One of the most pervasive and enduring forms of social inequality is gender inequality. This new book, Subverting Social Inequalities: Gender as a Social Reality, explores the ways in which gender operates as a social reality and how it intersects with other forms of social inequality, such as race, class, sexuality, and ability.
The book examines how gender is constructed and maintained through various social institutions, such as family, workforce, and education systems. It also analyzes the ways in which individuals and groups subvert gender norms and looks at the challenges to gender inequalities through activism, art, and other forms of resistance. The book explores the internalization of gender ideology and construction in classroom discourse. It looks at the gender disparity of boys and girls in their adoption of information and communications technology as well as in their interest in mathematics around the world. It assesses the gender-illiteracy nexus in relation to girl-child education through the lens of conflict theory. It also explores the intersection of professional identity and gender identity construction by women professionals in academia by investigating experiences of gender-based harassment and discrimination in a number of countries, including Turkey, Germany, Sri Lanka, Nigeria, and India. The volume explores female entrepreneurship, a growing field of research, crucial to the corporate environment.
With the goal to facilitate advancing gender equality in challenging times, this volume investigates gender inequality in several areas and advocates for equality of rights for men and women as a prerequisite for a peaceful, wealthy, and sustainable world. This book will be of interest to researchers, faculty and studies, policymakers and others concerned with gender issues in society.
