Abstract

Dertien bekende Vlaamse vrouwen geven aan de hand van voorbeelden hun visie op hedendaags seksisme. Seksisme, bestaat dat nog wel? Of overdrijven vrouwen als ze protesteren tegen de loonkloof, professionele discriminatie en seksuele intimidatie?Seksisme zit soms overduidelijk maar nog vaker onzichtbaar ingebakken in de samenleving. In #seksisme leggen tien vrouwen de patronen ervan bloot. Of het nu over onhaalbare ideaalbeelden gaat, over de hardnekkigheid van traditionele rollenpatronen, of het bijna onverwoestbare victim blaming: het wordt de hoogste tijd dat vrouwen worden gehoord. Want nee, ze overdrijven niet.

Abstract

This text confronts the complacent assumption that ""boys will be boys"" which has resulted in blindness about the problem of boys in school. It challenges the culture of aggressive manliness within which most boys have grown up and the destructive masculinity that they learn later in life.

Abstract

In May 2004, after bringing their legislation into accordance with EU regulations, ten more countries joined the European Union. The contributors to this volume assess the impact of this historical development on gender relations in the new and old EU member states. Instead of focusing on either western or eastern Europe, this book investigates the similarities and differences in diverse parts of Europe. Although initially limited, gender equality was part of the original framework of the European Union, an organization often more open than national governments to feminist demands, as this volume illustrates with case studies from eastern and western Europe. The enlargement process thus provides some important policy instruments for increasing equality between men and women.

Abstract

Aan de hand van literatuuronderzoek, gesprekken met deskundigen, getuigenissen van slachtoffers, getuigen en pestkoppen brengt de auteur in kaart wat pesterijen zijn, waar, hoe en waarom ze gebeuren, hoe erover gedacht wordt, hoe slachtoffers zich daarbij voelen en hoe het hun leven beïnvloedt, wat mensen er zoal aan doen, welke wettelijke bescherming er is. Na een algemeen hoofdstuk over pesterijen wordt dieper ingegaan op de specifieke vormen van pesterijen: op school en in het jeugdwerk, op het werk, ongewenst seksueel gedrag op het werk en pesterijen in privé-relaties. Als bijlage zijn er een vragenlijst voor slachtoffers en nuttige (vooral Belgische) adressen. De (Vlaamse) auteur studeerde Germaanse filologie en verleende medewerking aan verscheidene publicaties. Dit zeer toegankelijke boek geeft een indringend beeld van wat het slachtoffer meemaakt. Slachtoffers kan het nieuwe inzichten bieden zodat ze hun situatie beter kunnen begrijpen en een instrument krijgen waarmee ze naar hun omgeving kunnen toestappen. De vele theoretische en praktische informatie is verder interessant voor opvoeders, (personeels)managers, vertrouwenspersonen in bedrijven en instellingen, medici, sociologen psychologen, juristen, vakbondsmensen, beleidsmensen en hulpverleners.

Abstract

"Sexting Panic illustrates how anxieties about technology and teen girls' sexuality distract from critical questions about how to adapt norms of privacy and consent for new media. Though mobile phones can be used to cause harm, Amy Adele Hasinoff notes that criminalization and abstinence policies meant to curb sexting often fail to account for the distinction between consensual sharing and the malicious distribution of a private image. Hasinoff challenges the idea that sexting inevitably victimizes young women. Instead, she encourages us to recognize young people's capacity for choice and recommends responses to sexting that are realistic and nuanced rather than based on misplaced fears about deviance, sexuality, and digital media"--Publisher description.

Abstract

Across North America a growing body of “chilly climate” research documents the role played by environmental factors in reproducing gender inequality: practices that stereotype, exclude and devalue women are persistently powerful forces in creating “glass ceilings” and maintaining “pink ghettos.” Women academics in North American universities and colleges offer an especially striking case for such research. Precisely because of their elite status, the accounts now emerging of the “chilly climate” faced by academic women throw into sharp relief the mechanisms that foster gender inequity throughout North American society. Collected in this volume are a number of reports and commentaries on “climate issues” as they affect women faculty in Canadian universities. They include Sheila McIntyre’s Memo, an account of gender harassment in the context of a law school that was first circulated in 1986; two reports by and about women faculty at the University of Western Ontario that were inspired by McIntyre’s Memo; accounts of the reactions of male colleagues, the administration and the media to “climate” studies; and several chapters that critically reframe the discussion of chilly climate practices in terms of questions of race and sexual identity. Taken together, these reports and discussions demonstrate the importance of addressing the environmental roots of women’s continuing inequity both within and outside contemporary academia. They communicate specific experiences which testify to the existence of a chilly climate in our universities, and call into question any supposition that women and men have achieved equity to the degree that they could be said to work in “the same” environment in these institutions.

Abstract

#MeToo has sparked a global re-emergence of sexual violence activism and politics. This edited collection uses the #MeToo movement as a starting point for interrogating contemporary debates in anti-sexual violence activism and justice-seeking. It draws together 19 accessible chapters from academics, practitioners, and sexual violence activists across the globe to provide diverse, critical, and nuanced perspectives on the broader implications of the movement. It taps into wider conversations about the nature, history, and complexities of anti-rape and anti-sexual harassment politics, including the limitations of the movement including in the global South. It features both internationally recognised and emerging academics from across the fields of criminology, media and communications, film studies, gender and queer studies, and law and will appeal broadly to the academic community, activists, and beyond.
