This book illustrates four of the most critical concepts in Women?s and Gender Studies?the social construction of gender, privilege and oppression, intersectionality, and feminist praxis?and grounds these concepts in multiple illustrations.The second edition includes a significant number of updates, revisions, and expansions: the case studies in all five chapters have been revised and expanded, as have the end of chapter elements, statistics have been updated, and numerous references to significant news stories and cultural developments of the past three years have been added.
