Women and Citizenship
Marilyn Friedman (ed.)
New York, US: Oup Usa (2005)
Abstract
This highly interdisciplinary volume explores the political and cultural dimensions of citizenship and their relevance to women and gender. Containing essays by leading scholars such as Iris Marion Young, Alison Jaggar, Martha Nussbaum, and Sandra Bartky, it examines the conceptual issues and strategies at play in the feminist quest to give women full citizenship status. The contributors take a fresh look at issues, going beyond conventional critiques, and examining problems in the political and social arrangements, practices, and conditions that diminish women's citizenship in various parts of the world including both Western and undeveloped nations.Author's Profile

Women's community activism and the rejection of 'politics': Some dilemmas of popular democratic movements.Martha Ackelsberg
As awful as it is to say, it has become trite to mark all events in our lives by ''before and after September 11, 2001.''The crumbling of the New York City's twin towers signified the end of innocence and the sense of this nation's childlike belief in its invulnerability. Political pundits, academics, and public intellectuals, re-gardless of political persuasion, embraced this nation's right to defend itself and many brought out their flags and proudly displayed them on their windows, SUVs. [REVIEW]Aída Hurtado
Care is a fundamental aspect of human life. Care consists of ''everything we do to continue, repair, and maintain ourselves so that we can live in the world as well as possible''(Fisher and Tronto 1990, 41). Most of us think about care in the intimate relationships of our lives: care for ourselves and our families and friends. In its broadest meanings, care is complex and multidimensional: it refers both to the dispositional qualities we need to care for ourselves and others, such as being. [REVIEW]A. Modest Proposal
