The entrance of women into public space, particularly through their involvement in the labor market, fundamentally changed meanings of feminine identity across the globe. Massive migration created encounters between women of different ethnicities, beliefs, and allegiances. This displacement produced an exchange of critical ideas and technologies between women across cultures, between women and the state, and between the demands of homemaking and workplaces. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWomen were impacted by diverse factors including urbanization, industrialization, mass-migration and communication, the intervention of the nation-state in the duties of home and child-raising, totalitarian political regimes and decolonization, eugenics and contraception, medicine, AIDS and feminism. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Cultural History of Women in the Modern Age\u003c\/i\u003e spans the 20th century with essays on changing ideas of the fetus, female orgasm, faith and forms of worship, pathology and technological intervention, the labor market, feminism and power, and challenges to the artistic canon by women of color.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Liz Conor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350009822\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350009820\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/22\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 6.60w x 0.60d","brand":"Liz Conor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45477048615167,"sku":"9781350009820","price":40.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3cdd5cb-8506-4bcb-8b23-217edd88801a.jpg?v=1715918905","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-cultural-history-of-women-liz-conor-9781350009820","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
