Female employment in Puerto Vallarta: a case study

This transnational approach to understanding gender brings Women's Studies into an era of globalization and connects women?s issues in the United States to women?s issues elsewhere. The book shows how colonialism and imperialism, as they spread across the world, shaped ideas about gender as much as other modern phenomena. It addresses issues of power and inequalities and focuses on links and connections rather than commonalties. The readings are truly interdisciplinary, drawing upon scholarly work in many disciplines and interdisciplinary fields as well as non-scholarly sources.
