Description
The question of how best to combine work and family life has led to lively debates in recent years. Gilbert argues that while the market ignores the essential value of a mother?s work, prevailing norms about the social benefits of work have been overvalued by elites whose opportunities and circumstances little resemble those of most working- and middle-class mothers.

Attribution
Sue Davis
Publication Details
Book, New York University Press, 2008

Description
“Scholars of American political thought have often failed to appreciate the significance of Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Smith, author of Stories of Peoplehood: The Politics and Morals of Political Membership Sue Davis admirably succeeds in this book that integrates the conceptual and political legacy of Elizabeth Cady Stanton with current scholarship on heritage of the American liberal state. In The Political Thought of Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Sue Davis argues that Cady Stanton?s work reflects the rich tapestry of American political culture in the second half of the nineteenth century and that she deserves recognition as a major figure in the history of political ideas.

Women As Weapons Of War : Iraq, Sex, And The Media

Attribution
Kelly Oliver
Publication Details
Book, Columbia University Press, 2007
Description
The very idea that women can be used as interrogation tools, as evidenced in the infamous Abu Ghraib torture photos, plays on age-old fears of women as sexually threatening weapons, and therefore the literal explosion of women onto the war scene should come as no surprise. In Women as Weapons of War, Kelly Oliver reveals how the media and the administration frequently use metaphors of weaponry to describe women and female sexuality and forge a deliberate link between notions of vulnerability and images of violence.
