Abstract

Van de jaren 1920 tot de jaren 1970 wierven de zeven mijnen in Belgisch Limburg vele buitenlandse werknemers. Poolse mijnwerkers, die in het interbellum naar België kwamen, en Italiaanse mijnwerkers, die immigreerden vanaf 1946, kampten in Limburg met achterstelling en stigmatisering vanwege hun afkomst. Voor hun kleinkinderen is dat nu verleden tijd. Dit boek verklaart die verandering aan de hand van een detailstudie van het samenleven van gevestigden en nieuwkomers in de Limburgse mijnwijk Zwartberg. In de mijn was iedereen zwart, zo gaat het gezegde. De noodzaak tot samenwerking onder de grond zou de mijnwerkersbevolking ook boven de grond hebben verenigd. Deze studie nuanceert dat mooie verhaal. De mijnen en mijncités brachten oude en nieuwe Limburgers niet onmiddellijk tot een sterk gemeenschapsgevoel. De toenadering groeide wel geleidelijk vanaf de tweede generatie. Dat had te maken met de mijnindustrie, maar ook met de komst van nieuwe buitenstaanders. Migratiestudies belichten veelal slechts de eerste twee decennia na de immigratie, wanneer de samenlevingsproblemen het grootst zijn. 'Iedereen zwart' biedt onderzoekers en beleidswerkers integendeel een blik op de lange termijn. Dat levert nieuwe inzichten op over samenleven en integratie.

Abstract

In Desire for Development: Whiteness, Gender, and the Helping Imperative, Barbara Heron draws on poststructuralist notions of subjectivity, critical race and space theory, feminism, colonial and postcolonial studies, and travel writing to trace colonial continuities in the post-development recollections of white Canadian women who have worked in Africa. Following the narrative arc of the development worker story from the decision to go overseas, through the experiences abroad, the return home, and final reflections, the book interweaves theory with the words of the participants to b

Abstract

This book aims to map the diversity of meanings of gender equality across Europe and reflects on the contested concept of gender equality. In its exploration of the diverse meanings of gender equality it not only takes into account the existence of different visions of gender equality, and the way in which different political and theoretical debates crosscut these visions, but also reflects upon the geographical contexts in which visions and debates over gender equality are located. The contextual locations where these visions and debates take place include the European Union and member states such as Austria, the Netherlands, Hungary, Slovenia, Greece, and Spain. In all of these settings, the different meanings of gender equality are explored comparatively in relation to the issues of family policies, domestic violence, and gender inequality in politics, while specific national contexts discuss the issues of prostitution (Austria, Slovenia), migration (the Netherlands), homosexual rights (Spain), and antidiscrimination (Hungary). The multiple meanings of gender equality are studied through Critical Frame Analysis, a methodology that builds on social movement theory and that was refined further with elements of gender and political theory within the context of the MAGEEQ research project

Abstract

Gendering the State is a ground-breaking collection of studies that examines the efforts of women in countries all over the world to frame public policy debates on nationally critical issues in gendered terms. The overall study is grouped into three distinct patterns of state change: state downsizing_particularly in social policy areas (Canada, Finland, the Netherlands, the United States, and Spain); expansion of state activities into previously less-regulated areas (Austria, France, Germany, and Sweden); and transformation_often constitutionally based_of representative structures (Australia,
