This unique, timely book of original essays sets the stage for a new materialist feminist debate on the analysis, ethics and politics of love. The contributors raise questions about social power and domination, situating their research in a materialist feminist perspective that investigates love historically, in order to understand changing ideologies, representations and practices. The essays range from studies of particular representations and examples of love - feminist translation, mass media images and internet love blogs - to feminist theories of love and marriage, to ethical and political theories describing, critiquing or advocating the use of love in groups as a radical force. They break new ground in bringing together questions of gendered interests in love, temporal dimensions of loving practices and the politics of love in radical transformations of society.

Bringing together essays by a distinguished international group of leading and emerging scholars of sexuality and gender, this stimulating and accessible collection explores a range of theoretical and "real world" perspectives current in the field. Treating these approaches as complementary, Sexuality, Gender and Power fosters critical conversations about sexuality across disciplinary, cultural, national and ideological boundaries. Underpinned by a broad editorial commitment to intersectionality, the chapters deploy approaches that range from historical materialism to queer theory, and from contract theory to theories of the gendered sexual self to address recurrent questions around agency, power, identity and self-hood. Theoretical debates inform and are informed by more empirically oriented chapters focusing on topics such as gay identity in contemporary Croatia, sexual politics in the Commonwealth Caribbean, western "tango tourists," sexual violence in war, prostitution, femme fashion, changing sexual norms in China and Taiwan, and feminist politics in the 2008 US presidential campaign. Each chapter is interesting and important in its own right; taken together, they advance gender theory and research by developing a complex conception of sexuality that explores intersections between and amongst theories, levels of analysis and identities, linking case studies to international trends and theoretical debates to everyday experiences.

In this new anthology, the editors of the widely acclaimed The Political Interests of Gender (1988) make a compelling case for reconstructing feminist theory in critical-realist terms, fostering more robust, multi-dimensional approaches to analyses of the political interests of gender. Leading gender studies’ scholars utilise different research traditions to investigate topics including human rights, women’s movements, gendered labour markets, international monetary policy, equality policy, and queer politics. This unique anthology includes theoretical and empirical work, illustrating how to build bridges between materialist and discursive theoretical frameworks for understanding the politics of gender. It will be a trend-setting text for advanced gender studies political science, and sociology courses, as well as for professionals in these fields.

I Kärlekskraft, makt och politiska intressen ställer Anna G. Jónasdóttir frågan hur man kan förklara den fortsatta ojämlikheten mellan kvinnor och män i våra formellt jämlika samhällen. Hon skisserar tre olika, men till varandra relaterade teoretiska perspektiv:en feministisk-materialistisk historieuppfattning, avsedd att fungera som »ledtråd för vidare studier», en historiskt specifik teori om patriarkatet i formellt jämlika samhällen och en teori om kvinnors intressen samt förutsättningarna för ett demokratiskt, kvinnovärdigt samhälle. Kärnan i Jónasdóttirs analys är begreppet »kärlekskraft», en produktiv och alienerbar mänsklig förmåga, jämförbar med men inte reducerbar till arbetskraft. Boken publicerades på engelska 1991. Den var då ett nydanande bidrag till den feministiska diskussionen. I dag är den aktuell som ett bidrag till vändningen mot att studera könsmakt som en samhällsteoretisk och inte främst som en språk- och kulturteoretisk problematik. Den ger också ett bidrag till diskussionen om Marx användbarhet. Anna G. Jónasdóttir är professor i kvinnovetenskap och forskningsledare vid Centrum för feministiska samhällsstudier, Örebro universitet.
