商品描述
This definitive handbook is the first reference of its kind bringing together knowledge, scholarship, and debates on themes and issues concerning African women everywhere. It unearths, critiques, reviews, analyses, theorizes, synthesizes and evaluates African women's historical, social, political, economic, local and global lives and experiences with a view to decolonizing the corpus. This Handbook questions the gendered roles and positions of African women and the structures, institutions, and processes of policy, politics, and knowledge production that continually construct, deconstruct, and reconstruct African women and the study of them. Contributors offer a consistent emphasis on debunking erroneous and misleading myths about African women's roles and positions, bringing their previously marginalized stories to relief, and ultimately re-writing their histories. Thus, this Handbook enlarges the scope of the field, challenges its orthodoxies, and engenders new subjects, theories, and approaches. This reference work includes, to the greatest extent possible, the voices of African women themselves as writers of their own stories. The detailed, rigorous and up-to-date analyses in the work represent a variety of theoretical, methodological, and transdisciplinary approaches. This reference work will prove vital in charting new directions for the study of African women, and will reverberate in future studies, generating new debates and engendering further interest.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本權威手冊是首部將有關非洲女性的知識、學術和辯論匯集在一起的參考書。它挖掘、批評、回顧、分析、理論化、綜合和評估非洲女性的歷史、社會、政治、經濟、地方和全球生活及經驗,旨在去殖民化這一領域。這本手冊質疑非洲女性的性別角色和地位,以及不斷構建、解構和重構非洲女性及其研究的政策、政治和知識生產的結構、機構和過程。貢獻者們一致強調揭穿有關非洲女性角色和地位的錯誤和誤導性神話,將她們之前被邊緣化的故事呈現出來,最終重新書寫她們的歷史。因此,這本手冊擴大了該領域的範疇,挑戰其正統觀念,並孕育出新的主題、理論和方法。這部參考作品在可能的範圍內,包含了非洲女性作為自己故事的作者的聲音。該作品中的詳細、嚴謹和最新的分析代表了多種理論、方法論和跨學科的取向。這部參考作品將在為非洲女性研究開辟新方向方面發揮重要作用,並將在未來的研究中引起共鳴,產生新的辯論並激發進一步的興趣。
