Integrating research from sociology, social cognition and psychology, and organizational behavior, \u003cem\u003eFramed by Gender\u003c\/em\u003e identifies the general processes through which gender as a principle of inequality rewrites itself into new forms of social and economic organization. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCecilia Ridgeway argues that people confront uncertain circumstances with gender beliefs that are more traditional than those circumstances. They implicitly draw on the too-convenient cultural frame of gender to help organize new ways of doing things, thereby re-inscribing trailing gender stereotypes into the new activities, procedures, and forms of organization. This dynamic does not make equality unattainable, but suggests a constant struggle with uneven results. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDemonstrating how personal interactions translate into larger structures of inequality, \u003cem\u003eFramed by Gender i\u003c\/em\u003es a powerful and original take on the troubling endurance of gender inequality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cecilia L.
