In \u003cem\u003eGender, Agency and Change\u003c\/em\u003e the contributors illustrate the complexities involved in the constitution and performance of agency. Such agency may be reflected in strategies of accommodation and adaption that can nevertheless produce new institutional arrangements. Alternatively, they may be directed towards the outright rejection of these processes. The cases examined in this volume explore the ways in which different subjects engage in the reformulation of spaces, roles and identities, redefining the boundaries between, and the content of, the 'public' and the 'private'. The examples also provide an account of how gendered discourses are deployed to convey new meanings, a new sense of place and time, confirming or challenging ideas of 'tradition' and 'modernity'. This collection will be of particular interest to students of anthropology and gender studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Victoria Goddard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415228271\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415228275\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/06\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.78h x 5.74w x 1.07d","brand":"Victoria Goddard","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136058503423,"sku":"9780415228275","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ae28b2b6-c24f-4ae3-aff8-66113d62877c.jpg?v=1770160234","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gender-agency-and-change-victoria-goddard-9780415228275","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
