Book Overview
Adopting the notion of "third world" as a political and geographical category, this volume analyzes marginalized women's experiences of globalization. It unravels the intersections of race, culture, gender, ethnicity, nationality, and class that have shaped the position of these women in the global political economy, as well as their cultural and national histories. In addition to a thematically structured and highly informative investigation, the authors explore policy implications, which are commonly neglected in mainstream literature. The result is an invaluable volume for scholars in the fields of sociology and women's studies, social policy experts, and professionals working within nongovernmental organizations.
