Theories concerning love in the West tend to be bound by the problematic constraints of patriarchal conceptions of what counts ontologically as “true” or “universal” love. It seems that feminist love studies must choose between shining light on these constraints or bursting through them. In this article I give a feminist analysis of Augustine of Hippo's theory of love through a philosophical, psychological, and theological reading of his complicated relationships with women. I argue that, given the “embodied” nature of his many loves throughout his life, there is room in Augustine's account of love for a gendered reading of love that is unconstrained by patriarchal notions concerning which gender is capable of which kind of love. Augustine's theory of love is one that is not coldly universal but bodied and personal; indeed, although it is founded inside patriarchal historical constructions, it is capable of bursting out of these constraints and suggesting an egalitarian, nongendered view of love.

The present article engages with the eponymous character of Oscar Wilde’s “Salomé” and focuses on her subversion of the patriarchal rules, and on her attempts at seducing the prophet Jokanaan. Wilde’s “Salomé” becomes “an erotic symbol of daring, transgression, and perversity” (Sloan 112). She wants to look at Jokanaan, as well as to be touched by him and openly states her great desire for him, using the imagery taken from the biblical “Song of Songs” to express her passion. Moreover, the Princess skillfully adopts and reverses the male gaze to manipulate others and go beyond the patriarchal constraints at Herod’s court. She becomes aware that the only way to reach her goals is to look actively and evade being a mere object of the male gaze. The article shows that the imagery employed in the eponymous character’s speeches contributes to her portrayal as a seductress, also accentuating her rebellion, and analyzes how the Princess transgresses the patriarchal constraints through appropriating the male gaze.

Wandiu-diu is a folktale from the Wolio community in Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia, that depicts a family with two children, where the husband is a fisherman and the wife is a housewife. The husband’s role is crucial, as his occupation and actions contribute to the construction of gender roles and power. This article argues that this folktale serves as a mechanism of control over women’s bodies, underpinning patriarchal structures through three roles: married women, mothers, and independent women. Using Simone de Beauvoir’s gender framework, this study categorizes the data into these three roles and analyzes relevant narratives from the tale. Beauvoir’s gender theory critiques the “Othering” of women, highlighting their historical subordination to men in social, cultural, and political spheres. The findings reveal that Wandiu-diu’s transformation into a mermaid symbolizes patriarchal control over women’s bodies. Marriage binds women to their husbands, motherhood renders them vulnerable through self-sacrifice, and seeking independence makes them objects of societal ridicule. The mermaid figure, rather than signifying freedom, eventually represents patriarchal constraints. Hence, the linguistic choices in Wandiu-diu reinforce patriarchal power, shaping portrayals of women’s roles and struggles. Through lexical selection, narrative structure, and dialogue, the tale depicts women as subordinate, their autonomy met with resistance and punishment. Male speech, marked by imperative verbs and possessive pronouns, asserts dominance, while the mother’s indirect speech reflects constrained autonomy. While appearing to symbolize female liberation, the tale eventually fortifies patriarchal oppression in the Wolio community of Southeast Sulawesi.

For the Dalit women in our patriarchal and caste-based society, Karukku is a vital novel. The protagonist goes through a series of patriarchal or conventional tribulations the entire time. This type of hardship frequently causes women to fall into the lower echelons of society. Whenever Dalit women travel, they are surrounded by a variety of conditions that have been shaped by their caste. With regard to family life, the women adhere to patriarchal rules. With so many social and patriarchal constraints, they are unable to express themselves freely. They end up being labelled as "other" as a result of this. This essay by Bama depicts the tragic situation of Dalit women. She delves into her own personal history of oppression as it pertains to patriarchy and Dalit culture.

Abstract This Article uses the term patriarchal bargain in order to analyze spousal agreements. In her canonical article Deniz Kandiyoti has coined the term patriarchal bargain in order to describe how women negotiate with patriarchy and strategize under the constraints of male domination. Her seminal work has been highly influential in sociology and gender studies. However, legal scholarship has paid little attention to her work. This Article seeks to bridge this gap and explores how women bargain in the shadow of patriarchy. Using a European courts’ decision as an example, this article adds the patriarchal context of spousal agreements. This social context enriches our understanding of spousal agreements and deepens our understanding of contracting under conditions of social inequalities.

AbstractThe article will show that in Nights at the Circus, Carter’s use of the themes of food consumption and excrement operate as both a grotesque means of emancipation from a feminine point-of-view, and a carnivalesque challenge to subversive patriarchal norms and deconstruction of arbitrary patriarchal hierarchies. By turning the simple act of eating into boisterous spectacle, and by handling a bottle of champagne and water hose in a disturbingly masculine manner, Fevvers transgresses the boundary between masculinity and femininity, sheds the patriarchal constraints imposed upon femininity, and thus achieves agency and emancipation. Since she is not able to acquire biological signifier of masculinity, she achieves the transgression of the binary entirely through the performative carnivalesque. The article will also discuss that the overflowing nature of grotesque femininity (both physical and behavioral) enables the female characters to speak and act at their own will, and thus performs as a means of critiquing Victorian patriarchal cultural norms.

The following essay explores the theme of feminism within Su Qing’s Ten Years of Marriage. It emphasizes the focal character Huaiqing who can be taken as representation of cultural norms in the patriarchal society during the “May 4th period” in China. Su Qing uses feminine discourse and unique narrative strategies to show women’s status as “others” and their survival dilemmas in the patriarchal culture, reveal their physical and mental constraints and refute the misogynistic idea of female being parasites of their husbands. Apart from displaying the physical and mental constraints inflicted on women, the novel makes a portrait of a bunch of pitiful and detestable females, exposing their flaws in an attempt to arouse their self-consciousness. Su Qing in this novel also deconstructed “male mythology” and subverted the supreme image of males in traditional culture by presenting a series of male images in a critical way.

This study investigates the significant influence of patriarchy on the potential acceptance and use of local digital government innovations in resource-constrained countries, building on studies that highlight patriarchy’s impactful role in shaping innovation. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) was adopted as the evaluation theory ( n = 270) using Ethiopia as a case study. The results from structural equation modeling (SEM) reveal that patriarchy moderates the relationship between facilitating conditions and usage behavior. Contrary to conventional assumptions, we found that despite facing systemic barriers, women demonstrated higher engagement levels with the local digital innovation compared to their male counterparts, even when they did not perceive direct job-related benefits. This revelation not only challenges prevailing gender stereotypes but also underscores the resilience of women in circumventing patriarchal constraints. The study significantly contributes to theory by contextualizing the UTAUT model within a patriarchal framework, bringing out how societal norms and gender dynamics shape technology adoption in public sector settings. Practically, our findings advocate for gender-sensitive policies and interventions to bridge digital divides, emphasizing the need for inclusive strategies that account for underlying societal structures. By providing empirical evidence from a resource-constrained setting, this research offers important insights for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers aiming to foster equitable digital engagement and harness the full potential of digital government innovations.

This thesis explores the lives of first and second generation Sikh women in the UK. It explores how women's lives are affected by family expectations, patriarchal practices and relations. Based on thirty-nine interviews (nineteen with first generation women and twenty with second generation women), the study provides an insight into generational trends and changing perspectives on patriarchal practices within the Sikh community. This study assesses how first and second generation Sikh women see `appropriate behaviour' of women as reinforced by both men and women. Women's perceptions of the impact of the Sikh community on individuals and their families are explored to evaluate the role it has in reinforcing `traditional' and patriarchal values on its members. Beginning with a review of the available literature and a discussion of its limitations the thesis moves on to give an overview of the position of South Asian groups in the UK, focusing particularly on the Sikh community and Sikh women. The thesis identifies feminist theory and the grounded theory approach as appropriate analytical tools for the research into Sikh women's perceptions of their families and communities. The results are then organised under three main headings - community, family and patriarchy. Finally, the conclusion ties together the respondents' narratives and situates Sikh women's experiences within the sphere of the Sikh family and community in the UK.

Cette thèse analyse les causes profondes du sous-développement et des inégalités de genre en Afrique Sub-Saharienne. Le premier chapitre teste empiriquement l’hypothèse de Engels (1884) selon laquelle l’origine des inégalités de genre en Afrique serait la domestication historique des bovins. Pour résoudre les problèmes de biais d’endogenéités dans le choix de la domestication des bovins, j’adopte la stratégie des variables instrumentales en exploitant les facteurs géo-climatiques qui prédisent les terres les plus adaptées pour l’élevage des bovins. Les résultats des analyses montrent que les sociétés qui ont historiquement domestiquées les bovins ont eu plus d’inégalités de genre qui persistent jusqu’aujourd’hui.
Le deuxième chapitre est co-écrit avec Raphael Godefroy et Joshua Lewis. Dans ce chapitre, nous analysons les effets de court et long termes de la grande peste bovine survenue en Afrique dans les années 1890. Nous utilisons la méthode des doubles différences combinant les différences entre les terres favorables pour l’élevage des bovins et les conditions climatiques contemporaines. Notre étude montre que les sociétés les plus touchées par la peste bovine sont moins peuplés et ont moins de bovins, de plus les descendants de ces sociétés sont aujourd’hui les plus pauvres.
Le dernier chapitre analyse comment le genre des frères et sœurs influence l’âge au mariage des femmes. Les analyses basées sur le sexe du deuxième enfant révèlent que les femmes qui ont une petite sœur se marient plus tôt, ont plus d’enfants et sont moins éduquées. Les effets sont plus accentués dans les groupes ethniques qui utilisent la dot comme norme culturelle du mariage.<br>This dissertation investigates the deep roots of differences in gender roles and
development across societies in Sub-Saharan Africa. Chapter 1 examines the deep origins
of differences in gender roles in Africa. I test empirically Engels (1884) hypothesis, that
the origin of differences in gender roles in Africa was the historical domestication of cattle.
To address potential endogeneity in historical cattle adoption, I adopt an instrumental
variables approach that leverages geo-climatic factors affecting the suitability of lands for
cattle-raising. I find empirical support for Engels (1884) hypothesis. Further, the results
show that these differences in gender roles have persisted to present day.
In chapter 2, which is co-authored with Raphael Godefroy and Joshua Lewis, we
study the short- and long-run consequences of the 1890s African Rinderpest Epizoodic.
We adopt a difference-in-differences strategy that combines differences across ethnic
homelands in cattle-suitability with contemporaneous local drought conditions to identify
ethnic groups that were more or less exposed to the outbreak. We find that the societies
exposed to rinderpest experienced relative decreases in cattle-ownership in the decades
after the outbreak. We uncover large relative long-run decreases in wealth among
descendants of affected ethnic groups. These persistent economic losses appear to be
partially driven by distressed migration.
In chapter 3, I investigate how sibling gender composition affects women’s transition
to first marriage in sub-Saharan Africa. To address potential endogeneity in the final
sibling gender composition, I exploit the random assignment of the second child’s gender
in household with at least two children. I find that female with a younger sister get
married younger, with negative consequences for her education and literacy. The effects
are stronger within countries that traditionally pay bride price at marriage.

Examining women’s agency in the past has taken on new urgency in the current moment of resurgent patriarchy, Women’s Marches, and the global #MeToo movement. The essays in this collection consider women’s agency in the Renaissance and early modern period, an era that also saw both increasing patriarchal constraints and new forms of women’s actions and activism. They address a capacious set of questions about how women, from their teenage years through older adulthood, asserted agency through social practices, speech acts, legal disputes, writing, viewing and exchanging images, travel, and community building. Despite family and social pressures, the actions of girls and women could shape their lives and challenge male-dominated institutions. This volume includes thirteen essays by scholars from various disciplines, which analyze people, texts, objects, and images from many different parts of Europe, as well as things and people that crossed the Atlantic and the Pacific.

Women have the opportunity to make significant economic, political, and sociocultural gains during transitions to peace and democracy; however, these gains are frequently lost when competitive electoral politics resumes. This chapter identifies the key mechanisms responsible for this loss, providing examples from several countries in sub-Saharan Africa. These mechanisms include institutional constraints, historical political conditions, donor-driven agendas, prevailing cultural norms, and the nature of the women’s movement. The chapter suggests that while the enactment of laws and policies related to women’s rights are an important first step, a feminist and transformational agenda in post-conflict societies requires focus on patriarchal cultures and practices. The chapter argues that such transformation is aided by the fostering of strong relationships between grassroots women activists and politically elite women.

This essay considers anarchy in light of the dynamics of patriarchy in world politics. Western and non-Western patriarchal structures shape and constrain what states are, what they do, and how. They have played a crucial role in the constitution of state identities, diplomatic practices, and the maintenance, transformation, and expansion of the society of states. The unravelling of patriarchal structures in many parts of the world has implications for international society and the quest for order and justice. The increasing breakdown of patriarchal social contacts is fuelling gendered violence at all levels, including the explicit targeting of women and girls in intra-state and international conflicts. This violence is at once an embodiment of, and a threat to, sovereign statehood. If patriarchal society once consolidated the anarchical society in Europe, then it now also challenges that society from within and without as well as the possibility of its expansion.

Dual Penal State: The Crisis of Criminal Law in Comparative-Historical Perspective addresses one of today’s most pressing social and political issues: the rampant, at best haphazard, and ever-expanding use of penal power by states ostensibly committed to the enlightenment-based legal-political project of Western liberal democracy. Penal regimes in these states operate in a wide field of ill-considered and little constrained violence, where radical and prolonged interference with the autonomy of the very persons upon whose autonomy the legitimacy of state power is supposed to rest has been utterly normalized. At bottom, this crisis of modern penality is a crisis of the liberal project itself; the penal paradox is merely the sharpest formulation of the general paradox of power in a liberal state: the legitimacy of state sovereignty in the name of personal autonomy. To capture the depth and range of the crisis of contemporary penality in ostensibly liberal states, Dual Penal State leaves behind customary temporal and parochial constraints, and turns to historical and comparative analysis instead. This approach reveals a fundamental distinction between two conceptions of penal power, penal law and penal police, that run through Western legal-political history, one rooted in autonomy, equality, and interpersonal respect, and the other in heteronomy, hierarchy, and patriarchal power. Dual penal state analysis illuminates how this distinction manifests itself in the history of the present of various penal systems, from the malign neglect of the American war on crime to the ahistorical self-satisfaction of German criminal law science.

Schooling Diaspora relates the previously untold story of female education and the overseas Chinese in British Malaya and Singapore, traversing more than a century of British imperialism, Chinese migration, and Southeast Asian nationalism. This book explores the pioneering English- and Chinese-language girls’ schools in which these women studied and worked, drawing from school records, missionary annals, colonial reports, periodicals, and oral interviews. The history of educated overseas Chinese girls and women reveals the surprising reach of transnational female affiliations and activities in an age and a community that most accounts have cast as male dominated. These women created and joined networks in schools, workplaces, associations, and politics. They influenced notions of labor and social relations in Asian and European societies. They were at the center of political debates over language and ethnicity and were vital actors in struggles over twentieth-century national belonging. Their education empowered them to defy certain sociocultural conventions in ways that school founders and political authorities did not anticipate. At the same time, they contended with an elite male discourse that perpetuated patriarchal views of gender, culture, and nation. Even as their schooling propelled them into a cosmopolitan, multi-ethnic public space, Chinese girls and women in diaspora often had to take sides as Malayan and Singaporean society became polarized—sometimes falsely—into mutually exclusive groups of British loyalists, pro-China nationalists, and Southeast Asian citizens. They negotiated these constraints to build unique identities, ultimately contributing to the development of a new figure: the educated transnational Chinese woman.

Feminist scholars of international relations argue that gender is central, not peripheral, to the constitution of the state and to change “in” and “of” the interstate system. Western and non-Western patriarchal structures shape and constrain what states are, what they do, and how. They have played a crucial role in the constitution of state identities, diplomatic practices, and the maintenance, transformation, and expansion of the society of states. The unraveling of patriarchal structures in many parts of the world has implications for international society and the quest for order and justice. The increasing breakdown of patriarchal social contacts is fueling gendered violence at all levels, including the explicit targeting of women and girls in intrastate and international conflicts. This violence is at once an embodiment of, and a threat to, sovereign statehood.

This chapter examines how labor unions responded to workforce feminization that began in the 1970s. It first places the relationship of women to unions in historical perspective before analyzing empirical data on inter-union variations in the extent of women's representation in union membership and leadership in the late twentieth century, as well as variations in the extent and nature of attention to “women's issues” on the part of unions. It then explores the dynamics of union organizing in the 1980s, showing that workplaces with large female majorities were the most readily organized in that period—as measured by the probability of winning National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) union representation elections. It also considers the growing commitment of some unions in the 1970s and 1980s to gender equality issues and to incorporating women into positions of leadership. Finally, it discusses the innovative gender politics that has emerged in unions least constrained by the forces of deunionization or patriarchal traditions.

Women of the Virgin Islands: From the Field to the Legislaturerecognizes and restores women to their central role in the history of the Virgin Islands by examining their lives from the earliest days of the colony's settlement. Constrained by their sex, race, and colonized status, women, nevertheless, led lives of ordinary heroism, which ensured the territory's economic, social, and cultural survival. In this comprehensive history of women in one of the world's last British colonies, O'Neal shows how women continue to define and redefine themselves and their roles in both their public and private lives, even as the colony itself undergoes its own transformation. As the twenty-first century begins, this book takes a look back at the role colonialism played in the twentieth century in furthering male political leadership and patriarchal norms. While party politics might have had the potential to advance women's political careers, O'Neal concludes they have largely failed to do so despite the advances women have made. Beginning in the late 1600s, when the islands were first colonized by the British, O'Neal examines the growth of slavery and shows how women exercised leadership roles in their community while preserving some of the traditions of their native Africa. She moves on to discuss the shaping of women's roles after the abolition of slavery and the struggles women faced as a result. Moving into the twentieth century, the book takes a look at women in the economy, society, government, education, and even in the family, and explores how roles have grown and changed even as the islands themselves continue to be transformed. O'Neal shows that while patriarchal attitudes were strengthened, women still found their way into the public arena, albeit with difficulty, influencing all areas of social policy. This book represents a truly original and enlightening addition to the literature on the Virgin Islands and Caribbean history.

Ecofeminism can be described as both an ecological philosophy and a social movement that draws on environmental studies, critiques of modernity and science, and feminist critical analyses and activism to explicate connections between women and nature, and the implications of these relationships for environmental politics. Feminist writer Françoise d’Eaubonne is widely credited to be the founder of ecofeminism in the early 1970s. Ecofeminists embrace a wide range of views concerning the causal role of Western dualistic thinking, patriarchal structures of power, and capitalism in ecological degradation, and the oppression of women and other subjugated peoples. Collectively, they find value in extending feminist analyses to the simultaneous interrogation of the domination of both nature and women. The history of ecofeminism may be divided into four decade-long periods. Ecofeminism emerged in the early 1970s, coincident with a significant upturn in the contemporary women’s and environmental movements. In the 1980s, ecofeminism entered the academy as ecofeminist activists and scholars focused their attention on the exploitation of natural resources and women, particularly in the developing world. They criticized government and cultural institutions that constrained women’s reproductive and productive roles in society, and argued that environmental protection ultimately depends on increasing women’s socioeconomic and political power. In the current postfeminist and postenvironmentalist world, ecofeminists are less concerned with theoretical labels than with effective women’s activism to achieve ecological sustainability.

Abstract How does democracy persist for long periods of time in countries that are poor, ethnically heterogenous, wracked by economic crisis, and plagued by state weakness? In Democracy in Hard Places, leading scholars of comparative political regimes attempt to answer this question by examining cases of unlikely democratic survival in “hard places”: countries that lack the structural factors and exist outside of the contexts that scholars have long associated with democracy’s emergence and endurance. Democracies in hard places overcome underdevelopment, ethnolinguistic diversity, state weakness, and patriarchal cultural norms. The book offers rich, empirically grounded theoretical debates about whether democracy survives only because a balance of power and formal institutions constrain actors from overthrowing it, or if it also survives in part because some critical actors are normatively committed to it. The book presents nine case studies—written by leading experts in the discipline—of episodes in which democracy has emerged and survived against long odds. The cases are drawn from almost every region of the world that formed part of the “third wave” of democracy. In each case, many of the conditions conventionally associated with durable democracy were either attenuated or absent. Each case study details the constellation of obstacles to democracy faced by a given country, describes the major political actors with the potential to impact regime trajectories, and explains how the threat of democratic breakdown was staved off or averted.

Abstract This chapter aims to bring attention to some of the constraints older women face in their leisure and tourism pursuits. Being female and an older adult makes the leisure experiences of older women complex; fighting against not only patriarchal views of the world, but also the ageist stereotypes that say this is who older women are and how they should act. The chapter explains how several sexist and ageist discourses contribute to older women's understandings of what activities are appropriate and accessible to them. Using a lens of intersectionality allows for the complexity of older women's leisure and tourism experiences to be more thoroughly explained by accounting for multiple social identities. The homogenizing and oppressive nature of patriarchal views, like body image, ethic of care, and ageism, are suppressive of the possible identities and full range of leisure opportunities available to older women. As the general population continues to age, a better understanding of the complexities of older women's experiences becomes imperative. This chapter also provides ideas for how the leisure and tourism communities can begin to correct the missteps currently happening in our fields.

Abstract The Syrian civil war has caused thousands of deaths and the displacement of millions since 2011. Turkey currently serves as the new home to over 3.6 million refugees. Resettlement is particularly challenging for Syrian women. In addition to their patriarchal-assigned gender roles, women refugees encounter multidimensional difficulties. Unlike their male counterparts, they face overwhelming language barriers due to culturally imposed restrictions to their education in Turkey. Previous studies indicate women refugees have low levels of well-being and life satisfaction, as well as increased risk of depression. This chapter examines the types, practices, and benefits of leisure participation among Syrian refugee women in Turkey. Its findings reveal that throughout the resettlement process, leisure plays many roles, such as relieving trauma, increasing well-being and mental health, and supporting their integration into society and the labour market. Despite the abundance of learning opportunities, research on the outcomes of their participation is limited. Therefore, future studies should also focus on the effects of their participation in education to address the needs of Syrian women refugees. However, further research should be conducted on participation constraints to establish ways of encouraging refugee women's involvement in educational activities.

AbstractThis chapter explores and develops the notion of spaces for peace in the context of women’s cooperation in post-conflict Mitrovica. It argues that understanding women’s cooperative activities as spaces for peace highlights women’s voices and agency in the constrained context of Mitrovica—a divided city where, since the end of the Kosovo conflict, ethnic/national boundaries and patriarchy have had a profound effect on everyday life. The chapter focuses on three particular actions—learning/training together, working together and travelling together—which are viewed as women’s responses to Mitrovica’s constrained context, and explores how these actions contribute to peace and peacebuilding in the city. It concludes by suggesting that viewing women’s cooperative activities as spaces for peace can be the first step to transforming the ways in which women’s empowerment initiatives are viewed, conceptualised and delivered in post-conflict contexts around the world.

This chapter evidences historically rooted constraints on sexual expression while focusing on the sexual agency that can be mobilised by older Purépecha women (north-western Mexico). It considers how pre-Hispanic, pre-Imperial and heteropatriarchal Purépecha culture, where women were a means of exchange, has resonated through history and inter-articulated with (equally patriarchal) Spanish settler colonialism to reinforce regulation of (older) women’s sexuality in ways that continue to deny them pleasure and autonomy. In postcolonial (or neocolonial) times, women’s oppression has been cemented by modernist, monogamous romantic love that reinforces ideas of women as property. Such thinking recalls feminist observations on how women in the global South have had to reckon with colonialism and patriarchy shared by colonised men and their colonial oppressors. Drawing on interviews and a workshop involving a total of 20 women aged 50–82, this chapter draws on critical feminist analysis in asserting women’s sexual autonomy. It is suggestive of a decolonial sensibility in highlighting the value of Indigenous, older women’s sexual knowledges via fantasies, ‘suggesting new ethics of pleasure … pointing towards a more convivial model of sexual morality’ capable of transcending patriarchy. The chapter resonates with feminist postcolonial analysis that envisions productive, emancipatory dialogues between Western and Indigenous thought.

Abstract For Many Centuries women asserted their right to expression, their right to creativity, despite all constraints which thwarted and denied their talents. Female writers variously adapted to gender constraints, circumvented them or openly attacked them. Most of them found it quite impossible to ignore them. Yet there were women whose self authorization was based solely on their confidence in their own creativity and who empowered themselves as writers and thinkers. Such women recognized that they had talent which enabled them to write and with their writings affect others. Acceptance of that talent as a gift of an almost mysterious nature enabled such women to disre gard patriarchal constraints, gender-defined roles and the constant barrage of discouragement every intellectually active woman faced.

Chapter 4 continues the focus on families but with particular attention to how gendered family assistance facilitated access to health insurance differently for Latino men and women. The stories in this chapter show how Latinas in patriarchal family structures can work subversively to enroll in health insurance despite gendered constraints. Other cases show the importance of family job referral networks and parents’ family health insurance plans, especially for uninsured Latino men.

COVID-19 has devastated health systems and economies globally, incurring substantial financial costs for hospitality. Many chefs and kitchen staff have become unemployed. The culinary sector responded by utilizing digital channels to implement creative initiatives, including online cooking seminars, courses, and competitions. Hence, many women who attended online cooking competitions for the first time could express their struggle against male domination in the culinary world. This study examines how women, traditionally confined to domestic kitchens due to patriarchal norms, utilized online cooking competitions during the pandemic as a platform for resistance and empowerment. Guided by Michel de Certeau's conceptualization of strategies and tactics, three primary themes emerged from the analysis: domestic constraints and financial dependency, tactical innovations, and reclaiming identity and gaining confidence. This study helps to understand how digitalization during COVID-19 offered women new opportunities to confront gender inequity and challenge patriarchy in the culinary domain.

Abstract This chapter explores how women were able to do philosophy in nineteenth-century Britain despite patriarchal constraints. Drawing on scholarship on print culture and Victorian periodicals, the chapter shows that women could publish philosophy because for most of the century philosophical discussion was generalist rather than specialist, and was carried on in a generalist culture supported by books, periodicals, letters, and other print media. Book and periodical culture was not devoid of patriarchal assumptions, but women developed strategies for working within and against them. The successful publishing careers of Harriet Martineau, George Eliot, and Frances Power Cobbe illustrate these strategies. In particular, many women took advantage of conventions around anonymity, pseudonymity, and initialled publication, in a period when signed authorship was only gradually becoming the norm. The chapter then explains why women’s philosophical contributions became forgotten and left out of the history of philosophy, making reference to the professionalization and specialization of British philosophy from the mid-1870s onwards. Two case studies illustrate how these dynamics of specialization worked against women: Cobbe’s rise and fall from high repute in her time to near-total invisibility today; and the joint roles of the Coulomb affair and Hodgson report in pushing Helena Blavatsky’s spiritual philosophy outside academic respectability. The chapter concludes with some recommendations for how to recover nineteenth-century British women philosophers and restore them into narratives of the history of philosophy.

Higher education institutions, as key drivers of socio economic transformation, are increasingly positioned as pivotal sites for advancing gender equity and diversity. However, despite these potentials, universities remain inherently “gendered” spaces, where entrenched patriarchal structures perpetuate systemic gender inequalities in representation, career trajectories, compensation, and scholarly practices. This Special Issue critically interrogates the persistent gender disparities within academia, highlighting how institutional and structural norms systematically disadvantage women and gender minorities, with implications that are compounded by neoliberal market logics, gender based violence, and harassment. While Gender Equality Plans have demonstrated some institutional traction, their transformative potential is often constrained by resistance to cultural and structural change. A critical lens on intersectionality reveals the compounded disadvantages faced by marginalized groups, particularly in relation to caregiving responsibilities, racialized identities, and socio economic status. Key themes include the marginalization of gender studies, the neoliberal commodification of academic labour, work life balance, care work, and the impact of gendered labour divisions in academic hierarchies. The findings advocate for systemic reforms that move beyond tokenistic approaches, calling for a radical reimagining of academic culture and policy to address the deeply embedded gendered power structures.
