Includes glossary and index. Launius, C., & Hassel, H. (2018). Threshold concepts in women's and gender studies: Ways of seeing, thinking, and knowing (2nd ed.). New York: Routledge.
Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: The Social Construction of Gender -- Chapter 3: Privilege and Oppression -- Chapter 4: Intersectionality -- Chapter 5: Feminist Praxis
This text is driven by a single key question: 'What are the ways of thinking, seeing, and knowing that characterise women's and gender studies and are valued by its practitioners?'. Rather than taking a topical approach, the book develops the key concepts and ways of thinking that students need in order to develop a deep understanding and to approach material like feminist scholars do, across disciplines.
