Roma rights and Roma expulsions in France: Official discourse and EU responses

McGarry (2012) in CSP presented significant aspects and dilemmas of European Union (EU) policy towards Roma. Developing points raised there, this article analyses French government statements and practices concerning Roma in the period from summer 2010 to late 2013 as a case study.

Let’s get real about the ‘riots’: Exploring the relationship between de…

Despite media and political rhetoric to the contrary, there is persuasive evidence to suggest an association between deprivation and those involved in the English riots of 2011, which continues to be downplayed when developing responses to crime and crime prevention policy. This study explores empirical evidence from two major cities in the North West of England, which highlights an association…

What is customary about customary care? How Dutch welfare policy defines what…

In most welfare states, home care for elderly and disabled persons relies on a combination of private and public responsibilities, with gatekeepers adjudicating access to publicly funded care. Unlike other governments, the Dutch government has codified an explicit �customary care principle� that defines the �normal daily care that partners, parents, co-resident children or other household membe…

Employer sanctions: The impact of workplace raids and fines on undocumented m…

Drawing on qualitative interviews with undocumented migrants and ethnic enclave employers in London, this article examines the impact of sanctions from the perspectives …

In 1997 the women-run nonprofit organization Dress for Success opened its first location with the aim of empowering low-income women by providing gently used suits for job interviews. Drawing on eight months of fieldwork in an affiliate office, we analyze cross-race and cross-class interactions between privileged volunteers and low-income clients to demonstrate the emergence of what we term �ne…

Gendered Expertise

Based on in-depth interviews with policymakers and archival data, we examine the policy debates over court reform in family law and criminal law in Chile after the democratic transition. We introduce the concept of �gendered expertise� to capture the set of competences and claims organized around perceived gender differences and mobilized through gendered networks that we found in these debates…

Forms of Femininity at the End of a Customary Marriage

This paper explores women�s daily practice of resistance built into the racialized and gendered social structure of customary marriages in South Africa. I argue that women resist, accommodate, adapt, and contest power and authority in the decision to leave the marriage, in negotiating the exit from the marriage, and in their approach to the financial consequences of the separation. By using the…

Victims to Saviors: Governmentality and the Regendering of Citizenship in India

Gender scholars have argued that legal reforms against violence position women as victims in need of state help. Using data collected from 22 months of participant observation with survivors of domestic violence in India, I urge academics to re-theorize the relationship between legal reforms and women�s citizenship during an era of neoliberal governance. Burdened with administrative tasks, Indi…

Patterns of Global Gender Inequalities and Regional Gender Regimes

This article draws on data from various sources for 190 developed and developing nations and uses them to examine gender regimes, or forms of patriarchal structures, at the regional level. I argue for multiple, rather than single, measures of gender inequality and illustrate that using many inequality measures exposes a wider range of outcomes within the Global South than the North, also sugges…

Moral Women, Immoral Technologies How Devout Women Negotiate Gender, Religio…

Catholicism is the most restrictive world religion in its position on assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs). The opposition of the Church, combined with the widespread acceptability of ARTs in the United States, creates a profound moral dilemma for those who adhere to Church doctrine. Drawing on interviews from 33 Catholic women, this study shows that devout women have different understandi…

Re-visioning Ultrasound through Women’s Accounts of Pre-abortion Care in En…

Feminist scholarship has demonstrated the importance of sustained critical engagement with ultrasound visualizations of pregnant women�s bodies. In response to portrayals of these images as �objective� forms of knowledge about the fetus, it has drawn attention to the social practices through which the meanings of ultrasound are produced. This article makes a novel contribution to this project b…
