Read Now Download Now ⏭ listen AudioBook
Description:The epidemic of mass rape in the former Yugoslavia has illustrated again, brutally, the inextricable relationship between nat'l politics, sexual politics & body politics. The nexus of these three forces is highly charged in any culture throughout history, but especially so among cultures in which rapid, even cataclysmic, changes in material realities & nat'l self-conceptions are eroding or overwhelming previously secure boundaries. The postcommunist moment in the so-called 2nd World--Central & Eastern Europe & the former USSR--has dramatically exposed the opportunities & dangers that arise when the political, cultural & economic foundations of a society are de-, then restructured. Gender roles & relations, expressions of sexuality or attempts to recontain them, representations of the body, especially female, & the larger, cultural meanings it assumes, are particularly marked sites to witness the performance of complex nat'l dramas of crisis & change. This groundbreaking volume turns its attention to the 2nd World, specifically to such subjects as the birth of the sex media & porn industry in Russia; Russian women & alcoholism; cinema in post-communist Hungary; patriotism & gender in Poland; sexual dissidence in Eastern Europe; & women in the former Yugoslavia.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
