Women, Democracy and Globalization in North America. By Jane Bayes, Patricia Begné, Laura Gonzalez, Lois Harder, Mary Hawkesworth, and Laura Macdonald
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 July 2007
Abstract
For a series on comparative politics, Jane Bayes and her coauthors have written a text that is long overdue: the comparative history and politics of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, with women at the center, in the global neoliberal era. The book offers a deep critique both of economic neoliberalism (not the peculiar U.S. use of the term liberalism) and of traditional conceptions of democracy, which, they argue, should become “thicker” in women-inclusive, gender-mainstreamed ways. While the book focuses on secondary research rather than new, original research, it repackages the traditional ways that feminist researchers, especially Americanists, view the three nations of North America.
