{"product_id":"women-in-southeast-asian-nationalist-susan-blackburn-9789971696740","title":"Women in Southeast Asian Nationalist Movements","description":"Books on Southeast Asian nationalist movements make very little -- if any -- mention of women in their ranks. Biographical studies of politically active women in Southeast Asia are also rare. Women in Southeast Asian Nationalist Movements makes a strong case for the significance of women's involvement in nationalist movements and for the diverse impacts of those movements on the lives of individual women activists. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Some of the 12 women whose political activities are discussed in this volume are well known, while others are not. Some of them participated in armed struggles, while others pursued peaceful ways of achieving national independence. The authors show women negotiating their own subjectivity and agency at the confluence of colonialism, patriarchal traditions, and modern ideals of national and personal emancipation. They also illustrate the constraints imposed on them by wider social and political structures, and show what it was like to live as a political activist in different times and places. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Fully documented and drawing on wider scholarship, this book will be of interest to students of Southeast Asian history and politics as well as readers with a particular interest in women, nationalism and political activism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Blackburn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9971696746\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789971696740\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e NUS Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/31\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.05h x 6.05w x 0.78d","brand":"Susan Blackburn","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941416993023,"sku":"9789971696740","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_84f51392-3ae9-477d-b70e-92e4284fe360.jpg?v=1681452805","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/women-in-southeast-asian-nationalist-susan-blackburn-9789971696740","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
