"La politique internationale est un monde d'hommes », disait en 1988 la féministe étatsunienne Ann Tickner, théoricienne des relations internationales. Il semble que cette constatation soit toujours d'actualité quelque trente années plus tard. Dès la création de la première chaire de recherche dans ce domaine, en 1919, c'est une vision masculine et occidentale du monde qui a prédominé. Les choses sont en train de changer, lentement, avec la place de plus en plus grande que prennent divers groupes de femmes au sein des facultés universitaires et des instances de pouvoir, et ce, partout dans le monde.Cet ouvrage au pari ambitieux - relevé avec brio - présente la variété et la richesse méthodologique et théorique des perspectives féministes sur les relations internationales, qui déconstruisent un certain récit conservateur de la discipline et offrent une vision approfondie des débats internationaux. Vingt-neuf chercheuses et deux chercheurs d'une douzaine de pays, associés à une vingtaine d'institutions, proposent des contributions sur la gouvernance mondiale, l'économie politique, la sécurité internationale et les mouvements transnationaux dans leur imbrication avec le genre, l'hétéronormativité, le racisme systémique, le colonialisme, les enjeux autochtones ou l'immigration."-- Fourni par l'éditeur.

In this collection, scholars and practitioners reflect on the most appropriate interventions to create a more inclusive labour market for all. They explore the economic case for diversity and diversity management strategies, finding that diversity and inclusion must go hand in hand. The book also sheds light on the policy dilemma between respecting individuals and countering structural inequalities, which often requires categorization into groups. The authors remind us that there is diversity within diversity: not everyone receiving the same label has the same needs. The book covers a range of issues including gender equality and mainstreaming, migration and ethnic diversity, racism, violence against LGBTI people and age discrimination. It is thus a rich source of inspiration for anyone wishing to move towards greater justice in the labour market.

"A nuanced critique of how the World Bank encourages gender norms through its policies, Developing Partnerships argues that financial institutions are key players in the global enforcement of gender and family expectations.By combining analysis of documents produced and sponsored by the World Bank with interviews of World Bank staffers and case studies, Kate Bedford presents a detailed examination of gender and sexuality in the policies of the world's largest and most influential development institution. Looking concurrently at economic and gender policy, Bedford connects reform of markets to reform of masculinities, loan agreements for export promotion to pamphlets for indigenous adolescents advising daily genital bathing, and attempts to strengthen institutions after the Washington Consensus to efforts to promote loving couplehood in response to economic crisis. In doing so, she reveals the shifting relationships between development and sexuality and the ways in which gender policy impacts debates about the future of neoliberalism.Providing a multilayered account of how gender-aware policies are conceived and implemented by the World Bank, Developing Partnerships demonstrates as well how institutional practices shape development."-- Site de l'éditeur.
