Zimbabwe was affected by successive droughts which negatively affected rainfed maize production which most rural households rely on for subsistence. As a result, there was widespread food insecurity in many wards throughout the country. In response to the drought, the Ministry of Women Affairs, Gender and community, in 2005 introduced drought tolerant cassava as a substitute for maize. The objective of the cassava production, processing and marketing project was to ensure food security at household level. In Marondera district, the focus of this book, 50 women residing in rural wards were initially targeted with the hope that they will distribute cassava planting material to other women willing to take part in the project. However after four years, very few women are still growing cassava and the targeted wards still experience the worst food insecurity in the district. The study found that the factors that contributed to the failure of the project include poor project planning and management, unrealistic objectives, poor beneficiary participation, budgetary constraints, negative beliefs about cassava, absence of a well developed market and the operating environment. ····· 1036199041

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This study explores the patterns and determinants of age at first marriage of girls in Nepal. Empirical analyses of data show three main patterns of age at marriage of women. First, early marriage especially pre-pubertal marriage of girls is declining in Nepal with a gradual increase in marriage age. Despite this decline, some of the Terai caste groups in particular, still marry their daughters before their fifteenth birthday. Second, the majority of girls among Terai caste and ethnic groups, Muslims and Hills lower-castes are still married between 15 and 17 years of age, that is, below 18, the legal age at marriage, which reveals the persistence of early marriage among these groups. Third, marriage is still universal and mandatory among women in Nepal, most of which occur between ages 15 and 24. Bivariate and multivariate analyses reveal that age of girls, rural-urban place of residence, education of girls and their mothers, age at menarche, caste/ethnicity and religion, and dowry were significantly associated with age at marriage. The prevalence of dowry among the Terai caste groups, compounded with socio-cultural factors has a strong influence on the marriage timing of girls. ····· 1036198809

Gendered dress is visible in clothing product lines such as gents and ladies wear. This indicates that the rate at which the product lines are sold is largely determined by the specific gender. Thus, this interpretive enquiry involved a case study that examined the attitudes of middle aged women of Southerton towards a gendered dress code. The focus was on middle-aged women since they are the main purveyors of culture and constitute a large segment of dress consumers. Ten women and their families were purposefully sampled from a population of three hundred households. Interviews, observations and artefacts were the data collecting tools. The qualitative data were presented in both descriptive and narrative forms. Findings were intended to benefit the designers, manufacturers and marketers of dress. The findings indicated that most women held conservative views towards a gendered dress code and its transmission was not easy for most women especially those with teenagers. Religion was found to be pivotal in influencing dress choices. The study recommends that the clothing industry engage in a periodic research activity, which seeks to establish consumer attitudes. ····· 1036198315

Frauen, wacht auf!

für 55.00€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Diese frauen- und geschlechterhistorische Studie untersucht die Transformationsphase von der Habsburgermonarchie zur Ersten Republik unter einem neuen Blickwickel. Sie fragt einerseits danach, wie sich Geschlecht auf die Art und Weise der Teilhabe von Frauen an der Österreichischen Revolution ausgewirkt hat. Sie macht anderseits Frauen als Akteurinnen sichtbar, die den Neubeginn durch die Republiksgründung dazu nutzten, für eine bessere Welt zu kämpfen. Die Autorin stellt die Hypothese auf, dass sich unser Verständnis der revolutionären Vorgänge und der Rätebewegung in Österreich maßgeblich verändert, wenn Frauen als Akteurinnen in den Blick genommen werden - was nicht zuletzt unsere Vorstellungen von Revolutionen insgesamt provoziert.

Tagebücher als Quellen

für 80.00€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Tagebücher werden seit 1800 als wissenschaftliche Quellen verwendet. Wiederholt ist das in den Anfängen neuer Fächer zu beobachten: Sowohl die Kleinkinderforschung als auch die Jugendpsychologie haben damit grundlegendes Wissen aufgebaut. Joachim Heinrich Campe, Wilhelm Preyer, Charles Darwin, Clara und William Stern, Charlotte Bühler oder Siegfried Bernfeld haben Tagebücher ausgewertet. Die Geschichte der Tagebuchforschung ist auch eine der Arbeitspaare, der Lai/innenforschung und der Handlungsspielräume von Frauen im akademischen Feld. Mit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg erfuhr diese sozialwissenschaftliche Forschungstradition einen Bruch. In den 1980er Jahren wurden Tagebücher von der Geschichtswissenschaft `wiederentdeckt`. Seit damals sind umfangreiche Quellensammlungen aufgebaut worden, die heute eine ausdifferenzierte historische Selbstzeugnisforschung ermöglichen. Der Band bietet Grundlagen zu der bisher nicht systematisch dargestellten Praxis der Tagebuchforschung.

Gender interkonfessionell gedacht

für 35.00€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Die Reformation markiert einen Aufbruch, der Frauen neue Handlungsmöglichkeiten eröffnete und Vorstellungen der Geschlechterordnung sowie der Rollen von Männern und Frauen, Müttern und Vätern, Eheleuten und der Familie wandelte. Der Band nimmt daher nicht nur Konzepte von Weiblichkeit in den Blick, sondern auch Männlichkeit, Ehe und Familie. Der Schwerpunkt liegt darauf, diese Phänomene in Hinblick auf unterschiedliche künstlerische und mediale Repräsentationsformen von Geschlechtlichkeit in konfessionellen Kontexten zu erkunden. Als gemeinsamer methodischer Zugriff dient dabei das Konzept der Interkonfessionalität: So sollen Durchlässigkeiten zwischen den Konfessionen und konfessionsübergreifende Konstruktionen von Geschlechtlichkeit in der Frühen Neuzeit erfasst werden. The Reformation marks a time of change that opened up new possibilities for women to act and transformed ideas about the order and coexistence of gender and the roles of men and women, mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, and the family. The volume therefore explicitly takes into account not only concepts of femininity, but also masculinity, marriage, and family. The main focus of the volume is to explore these phenomena in terms of different artistic and medial forms of representation of gender in denominational contexts. The concept of interconfessionality serves as a common methodological approach: in this way, permeabilities between denominations and cross-denominational constructions of gender in the early modern period are explored. ····· 1036194817

Following South Africa s independence from apartheid rule, there has been progressive developments in equity policies including the water sector. Equality in the water sector is not only limited to water access, but also management of the water. This study investigated the factors that empower women in the water sector as an example of gender equity. It examined the attributes of women in water management through a case study of fourteen women in management in the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry (DWAF) Western Cape regional office, South Africa. The study findings suggest that implementation of equity legislation has contributed to adding the quantitative value and not so much the qualitative value to transform and challenge the institutional culture and practices. Women managers occupying senior positions are well qualified and bring diversity into the management of water resources. Yet, they are faced with both internal and external challenges in their positions. It was recommended that organizational transformation needed to be broadened and women managers required more support systems to ameliorate the challenges they faced. ····· 1036192202

Women in school management

Women in school management positions, particularly principals of schools have a number of challenges, for example, they are caught in between work responsibilities and the role of being a mother and wife. Gender stereotypes makes the society look at women managers as uncapable of managing schools. Hence they sometimes tend to lose their identity as women in a male orientated field of school management. Therefore, they sometimes tend to grow muscles in an attempt to prove themselves as capable managers. Despite all their challenges, they still believe in effectively managing their schools through involving all the stakeholders that have interest in education matters in the decision making process. This strategy seemed more appropriate in promoting democratic participation in schools as stipulated in South African education policies. ····· 1036191625

Genetic Studies of Romani Populations in Hungary

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This study focuses on the conceptualization of Roma ethnicity in the works of human geneticists. In this analysis I apply the methods of intersectionality and use expert interviews to collect data. The collected material is analyzed from a non-Romani feminist constructivist perspective. In the research of human geneticists the categories of diseases are at the centre and they link the Roma category systematically to genetic disorders. I argue however that this connection non-intentionally stabilizes the Roma category on a molecular biological level because this aspect fails to take into consideration the performative character of social categories. Geneticists by attaching the Roma category to a biological marker homogenize the culturally fragmented and diverse gypsy ethnicities and they reconstruct the Romani people`s social structures along the lines of traditional gender hierarchies. ····· 1036191355
