Download or read book Gender Space and Illicit Economies in Eighteenth Century Europe written by Anne Montenach and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-23 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to contribute a multi-dimensional, multi-layered and gendered approach to the illicit economy in the historiography of early modern Europe. Using original source material from several countries, this volume concentrates on a border and transnational area—approximately the Lyon-Geneva-Turin triangle—located at the heart of European trade. It focuses on three products—salt, cotton and silk—all of which fuelled the black market between the last decades of the seventeenth century and the French Revolution. This volume offers an original contribution to wider studies of smuggling, illicit markets and women’s economic roles by taking into account the economic life of remote mountain communities and industrious cities. Showing that irregular practices were a structural characteristic of early modern economies, it provides insight into the opportunities offered to women in a highly flexible economy where licit and illicit activities were intermingled in a very complex way. This research monograph is aimed at a historical audience and constitutes a useful resource for students and scholars interested in gender history, social and economic history, urban history and French studies.
Download or read book Officers Entrepreneurs Career Migrants and Diplomats written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-08-19 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Money, money, and more money.” In the eyes of early modern warlords, these were the three essential prerequisites for waging war. The transnational studies presented here describe and explain how belligerent powers did indeed rely on thriving markets where military entrepreneurs provided mercenaries, weapons, money, credit, food, expertise, and other services. In a fresh and comprehensive examination of pre-national military entrepreneurship – its actors, structures and economic logic – this volume shows how readily business relationships for supplying armies in the 17th and 18th centuries crossed territorial and confessional boundaries. By outlining and explicating early modern military entrepreneurial fields of action, this new transnational perspective transcends the limits of national historical approaches to the business of war.

Download or read book Violence against Women and Ethnicity Commonalities and Differences across Europe written by Monika Schröttle and published by Verlag Barbara Budrich. This book was released on 2011-10-11 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book draws together both: theory and practice on minority/migrant women and gendered violence. The interplay of gender, ethnicity, religion, class, generation and sexuality in shaping the lives, experiences and choices of minority/migrant women affected by violence has not always been adequately theorised within much of the existing writing on violence against women. Feminist theory, especially the insights provided by the concept of intersectionality, are central to the editors’ conceptual frameworks.

Download or read book Eidgen ssische Grenzf lle written by Wolfgang Kaiser and published by Schwabe. This book was released on 2001 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gemessen an den grossen Monarchien und entstehenden Machtstaaten galt die Eidgenossenschaft in der fruhen Neuzeit als seltsames Gebilde. Genf und Mulhausen, nur lose mit der Eidgenossenschaft verbunden, befanden sich zudem als Grenzstadt beziehungsweise Exklave in einer prekaren, doch historisch betrachtet erstaunlich dauerhaften Situation. Die hier vorgelegten Beitrage analysieren die Chancen, Gefahren und Veranderungen, die sich daraus ergaben. Der vergleichende Blick auf diese Sonderfalle eines Sonderfalls lasst auch die scheinbare Regel, den fruhmodernen Staat, in einem neuen Licht erscheinen.

Gender-based violence, including violence against women, remains a key human rights challenge in contemporary Europe and in the world. Working with young people on human rights education is one way of preventing gender-based violence from occurring. By raising awareness on why and how it manifests and exploring its impact on people and in society, gender-based violence will no longer go undetected. Gender really does matter, to women, to men, to young people - to all of us. This manual serves to explore these human rights issues and act upon them."--Book jacket.

Download or read book Gender Orders Unbound written by Ilse Lenz and published by Barbara Budrich. This book was released on 2007-05-24 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last thirty years, the modernisation of gender relations has been dynamic and comprehensive, shaped by the conflicting forces of globalisation as well as women’s movements around the world. As the patterns of segregation and discrimination of the classical industrial gender order erode, new complexities and contentions in gender relations emerge at various sites such as politics, work and families. The main aim of the book is to trace formal as well as informal gender contracts as they emerge in everyday life and also in new norms and regulations set by states and enterprises. Core issues are the chances and the barriers for equality and new forms of gender reciprocity and solidarity.
Download or read book Gender Innovation and Migration in Switzerland written by Francesca Falk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book analyses migration and its relation to socio-political transformation in Switzerland. It addresses how migration has made new forms of life possible and shows how this process generated gender innovation in different fields: the changing division of work, the establishment of a nursery infrastructure, access to higher education for women, and the struggle for female suffrage. Seeing society through the lens of migration alters the perspective from which our past and thus our present is told—and our future imagined.

Book excerpt: L'ouvrage r unit des contributions r alis es dans le cadre d'un Dipl me d'Etudes Avanc es organis entre 2000 et 2002 par les Universit s de Lausanne et de Neuch tel. Le th me de ce Dipl me concernait la d finition et les limites de la sph re publique antique. Or, analyser la place des femmes dans les activit s publiques antiques exige de d finir la fronti re entre priv et public, et impose une approche d'histoire de genre travers la comparaison entre activit s officielles f minines et masculines. Cet ouvrage croise les regards de sp cialistes d'histoire grecque et d'histoire romaine, d' pigraphistes, de numismates, d'arch ologues et d'historiens des religions qui tentent de fixer ces notions mouvantes qu' taient - et que sont toujours - la sph re priv e et la sph re publique. Les tudes rassembl es ici concernent trois poques et trois cultures classiques: le monde grec, le monde jud o-chr tien et le monde romain, en particulier l' poque imp riale. En pr ambule, le volume donne la parole deux femmes contemporaines que leur exp rience de vie et leur parcours politique ont conduites s'interroger sur l'insertion des femmes dans la sph re publique.
