Beschreibung
Over recent decades the concept of gender has been used to classify people and to explain their behaviour in social rather than biological terms. But how useful is the concept of gender in social analysis? To what degree does gender relate to sex? How does gender feature in shifts in familial structures and demography? How should gender be conceived in terms of contemporary inequality and injustice and what is gender's function in the design and pursuit of political objectives? In this volume a collection of international experts from the fields of political philosophy, political theory, sociology, economics, law, psychoanalysis and evolutionary psychology scrutinize the conceptual effectiveness of gender both as a mode of analysis and as a basis for envisioning the transformation of society. Each contributor considers how gender might be conceived in contemporary terms, offering a variety of interpretations of the term's usefulness in the future.

Zusammenfassung
Over recent decades the concept of gender has been used to classify people and to explain their behaviour in social rather than biological terms. This book provides a major new assessment of the effectiveness of the concept. International experts from a range of academic disciplines consider how gender might be conceived in contemporary terms, reflecting radical technological developments, the failures of feminist discourse, the changing nature of inequality between the sexes and female disadvantage in social, legal, and political spheres.
