Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | "Citizenship in an Enlarging Europe considers the impact of economic, political and social transformation in Central and Eastern Europe in the context of EU enlargement. The author uses gender as the lens through which to examine the process of democratization, marketization and newly emergent nationalism. She shows the centrality of gender to these processes and the ways in which rigid codes of masculinity and femininity limit people's choices. Individual chapters examine mainstream politics versus civil society engagement as routes to empowerment and participation. Barbara Einhorn highlights the growing public-private divide in the region, pinpointing the negative influences of the neo-liberal market model and its gendered media representations. Voices of scholars and actors from the region enliven the narrative. The author reveals the relevance of fully active citizenship within a vibrant civil society as a measure of democracy and gender equitable societies."--BOOK JACKET. |
