Beskrivning
Gender and the Politics of Possibilities explores the lesser-known side of globalization beyond the effects of national governments and multinational corporations by taking a look at grassroots movements by women that have and continue to shape globalization today. Manisha Desai highlights the significant role that women play in cross-border trade in Africa, in transborder activism on issues that affect women, and in cultural change and social justice.

Recensioner i media
Gender and the Politics of Possibilities stresses the agency of actors within a globalized world, and hence emphasizes the capacities – or in Desai's own words, 'possibilities” and “creativity – of African informal cross-border traders, transnational feminists, and cultural producers.
