Criptomoeda, Bitcoin, ICO, blockchain, mineração … Ao ouvir essas palavras apenas alguns anos atrás, as pessoas costumavam dizer: É uma farsa, uma bolha financeira. Não faz sentido investir, o preço é muito baixo. Nenhum país reconhecerá a criptomoeda. É um esquema óbvio de pirâmide. É uma espécie de diversão para os nerds. Até recentemente, a criptomoeda era vista como uma espécie diversão para um punhado de eleitos que compraram e venderam algo e acreditavam que uma nova moeda daria...

Drawing on surveys and interviews with almost 300 female military personnel, Melissa Herbert explores how women&apos;s everyday actions, such as choice of uniform, hobby, or social activity, involve the creation and re-creation of what it means to be a woman, and particularly a woman soldier. Do women feel pressured to be «more masculine,» to convey that they are not a threat to men&apos;s jobs or status and to avoid being perceived as lesbians? She also examines the role of gender and sexuality...

Despite tremendous advances in civil rights, we live in a world where the sexes remain sharply segregated from birth to death: in names, clothing, social groupings, and possessions; in occupations, civic association, and domestic roles. Gender separatism, so pervasive as to be almost invisible, permeates the fabric of our daily social routines. Preferring a notion of gender that is fluid and contextual, and denying that separatism is inevitable, Nancy Levit dismantles the myths of gender...

In 1979, Kathleen Barry&apos;s landmark book, Female Sexual Slavery, pulled back the curtain on a world of abuse prostitution that shocked the world. Documenting in devastating detail the lives of street prostitutes and the international traffic in women, Barry&apos;s work was called powerful and compassionate by Adrienne Rich and a courageous and crusading book that should be read everywhere by Gloria Steinem. The Los Angeles Times found it a powerful work filled with disbelief, outrage, and...

The epidemic of mass rape in the former Yugoslavia has illustrated once again, and in particularly brutal fashion, the inextricable relationship between national politics, sexual politics, and body politics. The nexus of these three forces is highly charged in any culture, at any time in history, but especially so among cultures in which rapid, even cataclysmic, changes in material realities and national self-conceptions are eroding or overwhelming previously secure boundaries.The postcommunist...

Women Who Opt Out is a collection of original essays by the leading scholars in the field of work and family research, which takes a multi-disciplinary approach in questioning the basic thesis of &#8220;the opt-out...

What role does theory play in academia today? How can feminist theory be made more relevant to the very real struggles undertaken by women of all professions, races, and sexual orientation? How can it be directed into more effective social activism, and how is theory itself a form of practice? Feminist theory and political activism need not&#8212;indeed cannot&#8212;be distinct and alienated from one another. To reconcile the gulf between word and deed, scholar-activists from a broad...

Dandies: Fashion and Finesse in Art and Culture considers the visual languages, politics, and poetics of personal appearance. Dandyism has been most closely associated with influential caucasian Western men-about-town, epitomized by the 19th century style-setting of Oscar Wilde and by Tom Wolfe&apos;s white suits. The essays collected here, however, examine the spectacle and workings of dandyism to reveal that these were not the only dandies. On the contrary, art historians, literary and...
