What psychological differences now exist between women and men? How are masculinities and femininities made? And how is gender entwined in global politics and debates over trans issues? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRaewyn Connell and Tristan Bridges - leading scholars of gender and inequality - answer these questions and more. Their updated revision provides a sophisticated yet accessible introduction to modern gender studies, covering empirical research from all around the world, in addition to theory and politics. As well as introducing the field, \u003ci\u003eGender\u003c\/i\u003e provides a powerful contemporary framework for gender analysis with a strong and distinctive global awareness. Highlighting the multidimensional character of gender relations, Connell and Bridges show how to link personal life with large-scale organizational structures, and how gender politics changes its form in changing situations. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe fifth edition of this influential book brings the statistical picture of gender inequalities up to date, offering new close-focus case studies of gender research. Like previous editions, it examines gender politics and global power relations, but with added discussion around contemporary issues of intersectionality, populism and 'anti-gender' politics, gender-based violence, trans struggles, and environmental change. It also speaks at the intimate level, about embodied gender and personal relationships. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eGender\u003c\/i\u003e moves from personal experience to global problems, offering a unique perspective on gender issues today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Raewyn Connell,Tristan Bridges\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1509568859\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509568857\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/20\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Raewyn Connell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48588358779135,"sku":"9781509568857","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gender-raewyn-connell-9781509568857","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
