内容説明
This book, for the first time anywhere, gathers the expertise of those researching women and politics in Irelandboth North and Southinto a single, comprehensive and accessible textbook on the topic. Contributors are drawn from both academic and activist arenas to bring a multi-disciplinary approach to the subject. Throughout, the book emphasizes analytical approaches to explaining the relationship between women and political activity in Ireland. In positing politics as a broadly defined activity that stretches well beyond the formal institutions of the political system, and in taking an all-Ireland approach, editors Yvonne Galligan, Eils Ward, and Rick Wilford bring new depth and texture to the topic. While the main analytical tools used are drawn from the discipline of political science, the text will be invaluable in Womens studies and Irish studies classrooms as well as within political science. }This book, for the first time anywhere, gathers the expertise of those researching women and politics in Irelandboth North and Southinto a single, comprehensive and accessible textbook on the topic.
Contributors are drawn from both academic and activist arenas to bring a multi-disciplinary approach to the subject. Contesting Politics begins by presenting current theoretical issues that inform much research on the topic. Contributions by historians locate the participation of women in aspects of Irish political life since the end of the nineteenth century, emphasizing the issues of suffragism and nationalism. The book then examines the central issues of women and the political parties and representation, the relationship between the womens movement and community-based womens groups in Ireland, and womens participation in public bodies and the Northern Ireland Womens Coalition; it then moves to policy matters such as women and economic development and the evolution of state feminism. A comparative North/South data section looks at the impact of the gender gap on specific policy issues. Also examined is the impact of the European Union on women.Throughout, the book emphasizes analytical approaches to explaining the relationship between women and political activity in Ireland.
