Struggling With Development: The Politics of Hunger and Gender in the Philippines
Автор:Lynn M. Kwiatkowski Год: [не указано] Издание: [не указанo] Страниц: [не указано] ISBN: 0813337844 Struggling with Development is a study of the complex relationships among international development, hunger, and gender in the context of political violence in the Philippines. This ethnography demonstrates that gender-specific international development,which has among its main goals the alleviation of hunger in women and children and the raising of women's social position, has instead perpetuated the problems of hunger and gender inequality in societies. Lynn Kwiatkowski questions the international "women in development" thrust of some feminist and development scholarships and organizations, arguing for a critical reevaluation of the hegemonic Western international development project.
