Feminist Institutionalism in South Africa: Designing for Gender Equality

Edited by Amanda Gouws

| on special |

normal price: R 365.95

Price: R 346.95


| book description |

The book engages with feminist institutionalism by asking the key question: Can gender equality be designed? It provides a critical analysis of the South African Commission for Gender Equality to assess its successes and failures over more than a twenty-year period and provides insight into the design of structures of national gender machineries – how they are designed influences the outcomes for gender equality. The research in this collection sheds light on choices for institutional design of national gender machineries during democratic transitions, the co-optation of institutions, the silences and collusions of those selected to work in the institutions, and the resourcing of institutions and their impact on policymaking for women’s substantive equality. The book has a broad appeal for scholars of feminist institutionalism as well as those working within the state.
