内容説明

Gendered analysis of familiar urban topics provides new insights for our understanding of urban studies, not only by counting women who had formerly been invisible but also by integrating their presence into our explanatory frameworks and normative insights. Gender in Urban Research provides an introduction to urbanists who have not considered the implications of gender in their research and contributes to the existing body of work on women and cities. This volume seeks to bridge feminist theories and theories of the state. The selections presented here serve as examples of how this may be done. Issues considered include violence against women, public housing, downtown development, child care, welfare, employment, and the political roles of women and minorities. This volume provides stimulating theoretical and empirical treatments in urban scholarship and is a must-read for students and scholars in urban studies, gender studies, and political science. "These short, most readable chapters illustrate some of the many ways in which women's--and Latinas', poor women's, and African American women's--lives differ from 'the norm'--that is from those of middle-class white male planners and policymakers." --Journal of the American Planning Association
