{"product_id":"planet-patriarchy-beatrix-campbell-9781805262879","title":"Planet Patriarchy: Global Tales of Feminism and Oppression","description":"In 1995, the UN vowed to advance \"equality, development and peace for all women, everywhere.\" Instead, in the Beijing Declaration's thirtieth anniversary year, the world is lurching dangerously away from such democratic and progressive ideals--reinventing nationalist identities based on toxic-masculine values, and embracing economic policies against women's interests. This reality exists in every type of country. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhy does oppression, rather than feminism, still dominate our world? This book reveals patriarchy's many faces in the age of globalization, exploring the political systems and cultures of eight very different societies. It takes readers from the extraordinary anti-capitalist women's revolution in Kurdistan to the theocracies of Islamic State and Saudi Arabia; from China's one-party state to Iceland's democracy; and to South Africa, Russia and El Salvador--all radically changed since the fall of apartheid, communism and military dictatorship respectively. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDespite patriarchy's remarkable shapeshifting powers to undermine feminist solidarity, \u003cem\u003ePlanet Patriarchy\u003c\/em\u003e is equally a story of sisterhood and resistance, interviewing defenders of women's rights about their cause and their country. Gender inequality endures, everywhere--but so does feminism. Campbell and Gupta's fascinating discoveries show us how this timeless showdown is taking shape in, and being shaped by, the systems we live under today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Beatrix Campbell, Rahila Gupta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1805262874\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781805262879\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hurst \u0026amp; Co.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Beatrix Campbell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47039948488959,"sku":"9781805262879","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b1e27554-c5d9-4a1e-8527-f5952d9f7dde.jpg?v=1752753095","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/planet-patriarchy-beatrix-campbell-9781805262879","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
