What do race, ethnicity and nationalism have to do with sex, and vice versa? This book explores how race is sexed and sex is raced, using examples to examine how sex shapes ideas and feelings about race, ethnicity and national identity and how sexual images, fears and desires shape racial, ethnic and national stereotypes and conflicts. Nagel skilfully blends styles of enquiry and interpretation from the social sciences and humanities to craft a convincing and illuminating account using images, poetry, fieldwork, internet postings, interviews, literature, ethnographies, historical texts, archival documents, biographies, census data, journals, and personal accounts.

The American Indian occupation of Alcatraz Island was the catalyst for a more generalized movement in which Native Americans from across the country have sought redress of grievances, attempting to right the many wrongs committed against them.In this volume, some of the dominant scholars in the field chronicle and analyze Native American activism of the 1960s and 1970s. Much of what is included here began as a special issue of the American Indian Culture and Research Journal; the introduction has been extensively modified and one chapter deleted. Importantly, the new first chapter provides extended background and historical analysis of the Alcatraz takeover and discusses its place in contemporary Indian activism.Contributors include: Karren Baird-Olson, LaNada Boyer, Edward D. Castillo, Duane Champagne, Ward Churchill, Vine Deloria, Jr., Tim Findley, Jack D. Forbes, Adam (Nordwall) Fortunate Eagle, Lenny Foster, John Garvey, George P. Horse Capture, Troy Johnson, Luis S. Kemnitzer, Woody Kipp, Joane Nagel, Robert A. Rundstrom, Steve Talbot

Does gender matter in global climate change? This timely and provocative book takes readers on a guided tour of basic climate science, then holds up a gender lens to find out what has been overlooked in popular discussion, research, and policy debates. We see that, around the world, more women than men die in climate-related natural disasters; the history of science and war are intimately interwoven masculine occupations and preoccupations; and conservative men and their interests drive the climate change denial machine. We also see that climate policymakers who embrace big science approaches and solutions to climate change are predominantly male with an ideology of perpetual economic growth, and an agenda that marginalizes the interests of women and developing economies. The book uses vivid case studies to highlight the often surprising, gendered impacts of climate changes.This new edition is a thorough update that includes revised and new chapters and new material that takes account of the significant advances in climate research, environmental and social theory, and the many political and social challenges posed in the wake of US elections, Covid-19 pandemic, and rapidly changing climate and environment. The new edition also takes account of important social and cultural movements that resist challenges to women’s rights and advocate for gender, sexuality, and racial justice.This book will appeal to students, researchers, and academicians interested in environmental studies and gender studies. It also will be of interest to policymakers, activists, and others involved with environmental policy and governance.
