One aim is to understand the processes by which relations of power are maintained, reproduced and resisted. \u003ci\u003eIntersexions\u003c\/i\u003e also examines modes of representation: within social theory, feminism, development theory and discussions of capitalism and postcolonialism, as well as dominant ideological notions of caste, domesticity and 'success'. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe writers' approaches are all critical but concerned also with providing alternatives. Comparative and specific analyses are combined, attention is paid to the written and spoken material of the people 'represented' and their own positions as commentators examined. Topics range from discussions of family ideology and paid and domestic work, to analyses of writings by Aboriginals, Vanuatuans and second generation Greek Australians and critiques of the cultural construction of gender and ethnicity in Bangladesh, India and Indonesia. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThemes recur and overlap.
