Abstract

"What do we know of masculinities in non-patriarchal societies? Indigenous peoples of the Americas and beyond come from traditions of gender equity, complementarity, and the sacred feminine, concepts that were unimaginable and shocking to Euro-western peoples at contact. "Indigenous Men and Masculinities", edited by Kim Anderson and Robert Alexander Innes, brings together prominent thinkers to explore the meaning of masculinities and being a man within such traditions, further examining the colonial disruption and imposition of patriarchy on Indigenous men. Building on Indigenous knowledge systems, Indigenous feminism, and queer theory, the sixteen essays by scholars and activists from Canada, the U.S., and New Zealand open pathways for the nascent field of Indigenous masculinities. The authors explore subjects of representation through art and literature, as well as Indigenous masculinities in sport, prisons, and gangs. "Indigenous Men and Masculinities" highlights voices of Indigenous male writers, traditional knowledge keepers, ex-gang members, war veterans, fathers, youth, two-spirited people, and Indigenous men working to end violence against women. It offers a refreshing vision toward equitable societies that celebrate healthy and diverse masculinities."--Publisher.

Abstract

The persecution of people in Africa for their assumed homosexual orientation has received considerable media coverage in recent years. However, much of the analysis has criticized African leadership and culture without considering local nuances, historical factors and external influences. Based on pioneering historical research and engagement with lgbti and HIV/AIDS activism, this book provides a sympathetic overview of the issues and a hope outlook on the potential of sexual rights for all. "The persecution of people in Africa on the basis of their assumed or perceived homosexual orientation has received considerable coverage in the popular media in recent years. Gay-bashing by political and religious figures in Zimbabwe and Gambia; draconian new laws against lesbians and gays and their supporters in Malawi, Nigeria and Uganda; and the imprisonment and extortion of gay men in Senegal and Cameroon have all rightly sparked international condemnation. However, much of the analysis thus far has been highly critical of African leadership and culture without considering local nuances, historical factors and external influences that are contributing to the problem. Such commentary also overlooks grounds for optimism in the struggle for sexual rights and justice in Africa, not just for sexual minorities but for the majority population as well. Based on pioneering research on the history of homosexualities and engagement with current lgbti and HIV/AIDS activism, Marc Epprecht provides a sympathetic overview of the issues at play and a hopeful outlook on the potential of sexual rights for all."--Page 4 of cover.

Abstract

Dit boek verkent de situatie van vrouwen van Turkse en Marokkaanse herkomst die in Vlaanderen in armoede leven. Via diepte-interviews verwierven de auteurs een beter inzicht in hun leef en belevingswereld: Welke zijn hun noden en behoeften? Hoe evalueren en ervaren zij hun sociale positie? Wat verwachten zij van hun toekomst? Zien zij kansen of vooral belemmeringen om vooruit te komen?Uit het onderzoek blijkt dat deze vrouwen heel wat creativiteit in huis hebben om met hun beperkt budget rond te komen. Ze ontwikkelen daartoe verschillende overlevingsstrategieën. Voor de toekomst zetten ze vooral in op hun kinderen, het geloof in het verbeteren van de eigen sociale positie is niet bijster groot. Bijzondere aandacht gaat naar de rol van het sociaal kapitaal van de vrouwen. Onder welke voorwaarden zijn hulpbronnen uit het sociaal netwerk beschikbaar en helpen deze hulpbronnen hen net genoeg rond te komen of geraakt men er echt door vooruit? Als je belangstelling hebt voor de leefwereld van een wat vergeten groep, die probeert om er tegen de stroom in het beste van te maken, dan is dit boek een absolute aanrader.
