Beschreibung:
This Issue draws on feminist analysis to address origins, operative modes, and differential effects of the economic crisis to which austerity has been a political response. It provides both theoretical and substantive cutting edge analysis of the crisis and its impact on the lives of different groups of women: how issues of gender, race, class, ethnicity and sexuality intersect in shaping the effects. It challenges economic and political orthodoxies about the nature of the crisis and political responses to it; reveals the gendered, racialized and sexualised exclusion and violence which neoliberal policies of austerity produce; and maps some of the emerging forms of resistance. It foregrounds the ways in which austerity is intrinsically gendered across the three spheres of finance, production and reproduction. The issue offers new ways of theorising economic crisis and how to develop strategies to deal with it, strategies which are in the interest of all and not just the few.
