内容説明

Sylvia Walby's book is a new approach to the analysis of patriarchy. It is both a theoretical overview and a synthesis of research findings on the subject by both feminists and non-feminists over the last two decades. The scope of the author's discussion of patriarchial relations in western history is broad - she examines their bearing upon sexuality, violence, the state, cultural institutions, and the household, as well as employment. Having considered existing explanations of gender inequality, such as those provided by role theory, marxist and radical feminists, Dr Walby applies her own theory to answer the crucial question of what exactly it is that forms the basis of men's psychological, legal, and institutional advantage over women.

内容説明

Sylvia Walby provides an overview of recent theoretical debates - Marxism, radical and liberal feminism, post-structuralism and dual systems theory. She shows how each can be applied to a range of substantive topics from paid work, housework and the state, to culture, sexuality and violence, relying on the most up-to-date empirical findings. Arguing that patriarchy has been vigorously adaptable to the changes in women's position, and that some of women's hard-won social gains have been transformed into new traps, Walby proposes a combination of class analysis with radical feminist theory to explain gender relations in terms of both patriarchal and capitalist structure.
