Abstract

Anthony Keddie investigates the changing dynamics of class and power at a critical place and time in the history of Judaism and Christianity - Palestine during its earliest phases of incorporation into the Roman Empire (63 BCE-70 CE). He identifies institutions pertaining to civic administration, taxation, agricultural tenancy, and the Jerusalem Temple as sources of an unequal distribution of economic, political, and ideological power. Through careful analysis of a wide range of literary, documentary, epigraphic, and archaeological evidence, including the most recent discoveries, Keddie complicates conventional understandings of class relations as either antagonistic or harmonious. He demonstrates how elites facilitated institutional changes that repositioned non-elites within new, and sometimes more precarious, relations with privileged classes, but did not typically worsen their economic conditions. These socioeconomic shifts did, however, instigate changing class dispositions. Judaean elites and non-elites increasingly distinguished themselves from the other, through material culture such as tableware, clothing, and tombs.

Abstract

In Theorizing intersectionality and sexuality worden politieke, conceptuele en methodologische vraagstukken rond intersectionaliteit opnieuw onderzocht door ze deze keer te linken aan seksualiteitsstudies. De auteurs in deze bijdrage onderschrijven één voor één de ruime waaier aan mogelijkheden die intersectionaliteitsanalyses bieden - of kunnen bieden - aan onderzoek binnen seksualiteitsstudies. Er wordt met dit boek voornamelijk getracht een meer complex, divers en vooral ook meer veranderlijk beeld van seksuele identificaties en ongelijkheden weer te geven met een focus op hoe deze identificaties en ongelijkheden doorheen tijd en ruimte herhaaldelijk zijn gewijzigd en dat nog steeds aan het doen zijn.

Abstract

Klassifikation und Klassenkampf: Class Trouble begibt sich zu den unruhigen Ursprüngen der modernen Klassengesellschaft. Woher kommen die modernen Klassengesellschaften? Es wäre zu einfach, den Kapitalismus oder die Eigenlogik sozialer Systeme dafür verantwortlich zu machen. Wie Class Trouble am Beispiel Englands zeigt, waren es sehr unterschiedliche und heftig umstrittene Diskurse und Praktiken, aus denen im 17. und frühen 18. Jahrhundert die Idee einer in Klassen geteilten Gesellschaft entstand. Der Fokus der Untersuchung liegt auf den Medien und Verfahren, durch die sich das Prinzip der Klassenteilung effektiv durchsetzte. Neben den bevölkerungspolitischen Sortiertechniken der Politischen Arithmetik sind es vor allem die ›Neuen Medien‹ von 1700 (Kaffeehaus, Club, Zeitung, Zeitschrift), die als Agenturen einer klassifikatorischen Neuaufteilung des Sozialen verstanden werden können.

Abstract

This book investigates various forms of women’s resistance to male domination, as represented in Kuwaiti women’s fiction. Drawing on Marxist-feminist literary theory, it closely analyses selected texts (published between 1953 and 2000), which reflect the effects of patriarchal culture and tradition on race, class, and gender relations in Kuwait and the Arabian Gulf region in general. It argues that the selected texts portray the pre-oil generations of Kuwaiti/Arabian Gulf women—born before or in the first half of the twentieth century—as resistant and/or revolutionary figures, contrary to the common notion of their stereotypical passivity and submissiveness. This book demonstrates how Kuwaiti women writers have used literature to work for, and contribute to, social change.

Abstract

"Each successive wave of revolution to hit modern China--political, cultural, and economic--has radically reshaped Chinese society. Whereas patriarchy defined the familial social structure for thousands of years, changing realities in the last hundred years have altered and even reversed long-held expectations. Transforming Patriarchy explores the private and public dimensions of these changes in present-day China. Patriarchy is not dead, but it is no longer the default arrangement for Chinese families ... Drawing on a multitude of sources and perspectives, this volume turns to the intimate territory of the family to challenge prevailing scholarly assumptions about gender and generational hierarchies in Chinese society. Case studies examine factors such as social class, geography, and globalization as they relate to patriarchal practice and resistance to it."--Provided by publisher.
