Between Woman and Nation: Nationalisms, Transnational Feminisms, and the State

Minoo Moallem (Assistant Professor of Women's Studies, San Francisco State University, USA)

Divided into three parts, this collection attempts to describe the effect of the homeland, country, region, locality and globalization on the definition of the word woman from such diverse places as Quebec to Beirut. The first part examines constructions of nationalism and communities whose practices complicate these definitions. The second section investigates regulations of particular nation-states and how they affect the lives of women, while the third presents studies of transnational identity formation, in which contributors discuss ideas such as multicultural nationalism and global feminism .
