While debates on globalization, free trade, and economic development have been linked to the paradigm of \"neo-liberalism,\" it does not explain all the forms of social change that have been unfolding in comparative contexts. \u003cem\u003eFeminists Rethink the Neoliberal State\u003c\/em\u003e provides a timely intervention into discussions about the boundaries, practices, and nature of the post-liberalization state, suggesting that an understanding of economic policies, the corresponding rise of socio-economic inequality, and the possibilities for change requires an in-depth reconceptualization. Drawing on original field research both globally and within the United States, this volume brings together a rich set of perspectives on the varied and often contradictory nature of state practices, structures and ideologies in the post-liberalization era. The essays develop an interdisciplinary approach that treats an understanding of historically-specific forms of inequality--such as gender, race, caste, sexuality and class--as integral to, rather than as after-effects of, the policies and ideologies associated with the \"neoliberal project.\" The volume also tackles central questions on the restructuring of the state, the state's power operations, the relationship between capital and the state, and its interactions with the institutions and organizational forms of civil society in the post-liberalization era. As such, \u003cem\u003eFeminists Rethink the Neoliberal State\u003c\/em\u003e examines both what is distinctive about this post-liberalization state and what must be contextualized as long-standing features of modern state power. A truly international and interdisciplinary volume, \u003cem\u003eFeminists Rethink the Neoliberal State\u003c\/em\u003e deepens our understanding of how policies of economic liberalization shape and produce various forms of inequality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLeela Fernandes\u003c\/b\u003e is the Glenda Dickerson Collegiate Professor of Women's Studies and Professor of Political Science at the University of Michigan, and author of India's New Middle Class: Democratic Politics in an Era of Economic Reform; Producing Workers: The Politics of Gender, Class and Culture in the Calcutta Jute Mills; and Transforming Feminist Practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 272\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8.9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 23, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52732195275059,"sku":"9781479895304","price":68.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/MGxqZ3RrUk9tRlB4SXIxMUNkd1NHdz09.webp?v=1763881379","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/feminists-rethink-the-neoliberal-state-inequality-exclusion-and-change-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
