Closing the gap in a generation: health equity through action on the social determinants of health

In the past twenty years, intersectionality has emerged as a compelling response to arguments on behalf of identity-based politics across the discipline. It has done so by drawing attention to the simultaneous and interacting effects of gender, race, class, sexual orientation,andnationaloriginascategoriesofdifference.Intersectionalargumentsandresearchfindingshavehadvaryinglevelsof impact in feminist theory, social movements, international human rights, public policy, and electoral behavior research within political science and across the disciplines of sociology, critical legal studies, and history. Yet consideration of intersectionality as a research paradigm has yet to gain a wide foothold in political science. This article closely reads research on race and gender across subfields of political science to present a coherent set of empirical research standards for intersectionality.

Measuring Women's Empowerment as a Variable in International Development

The major issues of development social and economic crisis the subordination or women and feminism may appear to some as too wide-ranging and disparate to be understood within one coherent and unified framework. Yet these issues are more closely related than academic and institutional discussions would suggest. In this book we begin to clarify for ourselves the nature of these relationships and to explore their meanings for those involved in policy and practical action. We hope this analytic base can serve as a catalyst for further discussion policy change and experimentation aimed at fundamental improvement in the status of women and hence their families communities an societies.
