Buch Details
The author's familiarity with debates in both cultural and social studies make this a particularly rich text. It is structured as a series of critical essays, each of which incorporate socio-cultural and historical contexts, while an extensive bibliography allows specifics topics to be followed up in greater detail. The volume brings together key debates in Spanish women's studies, including the emergence of the "new family, " party and non-party politics and sexuality, and developments in Spanish feminism. Particularly valuable for specialists are discussions of topics that have yet received little attention within Spain itself, among them prostitution, women and abuse, and the changing role of women in the gypsy community. This is the first full-length study in English of women in today's Spain.
