The connection between gender and power is at the centre of current debates across the social sciences. This book investigates the complex strands that inextricably link gender and power relations.The book shows how gender is constructed through the practices of power. `Female' and `male' are shaped not only at the micro-level of everyday social interaction but also at the macro-level where social institutions control and regulate the practice of gender. Reflecting this in the broad range of its analyses, Power//Gender explores the following questions: How is theorizing on power affected when gender is taken into account? What is a post-Foucauldian theory of gender and power? Is it possible to separate gender and power? What are the connections between gender and the practice of power in political contexts? How do these connections work in the specific contexts of women's lives? Is the construction of sex or gender an expression of power relations? With international contributors from social psychology, women's studies, sociology, management, political science and the humanities, this volume will be essential reading for anyone who seeks to understand why gender relations are power relations.
