Do they reflect local as well as international concerns and visions of gender equality? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis edited collection answers these questions by focusing on women's political leadership, electoral quota systems, national gender policies and transformational leadership as four feminist strategies that aim to engender democracy and citizenship. It offers a rich historical, comparative and ethnographic\u003cbr\u003eperspective on the lived experience of these strategies through case studies of Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Dominica, Jamaica and St. Lucia. Drawing on national policy debates, election campaigns, state officials' solidarities, men's gender consciousness and women leaders' life histories across these five\u003cbr\u003eCaribbean countries, the collection assesses the successes of transnational feminist efforts, the resilience of masculinist resistances, the limits of gender mainstreaming and the possibilities for gender justice in and beyond the Caribbean today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gabrielle Hosein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1783487518\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783487516\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/22\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.80d","brand":"Gabrielle Hosein","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48453916557567,"sku":"9781783487516","price":67.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_905bead7-86f1-42c4-9e8b-1ecd7f3c7b99.jpg?v=1777303015","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/negotiating-gender-policy-and-politics-gabrielle-hosein-9781783487516","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
