  1. The Disorder of Women: Democracy, Feminism, and Political Theory.Carole Pateman - 1989 - Stanford University Press.
    Carole Pateman is one of the leading political theorists writing today.

The volume includes substantial discussions of problems of democracy, citizenship and the welfare state, including the largely unrecognized difficulties surrounding women's participation. The inclusion of essays from both a mainstream and feminist perspective provides concrete examples of the differences between these two approaches to democracy, to (...)

  • Citizenship: Feminist Perspectives.Ruth Lister - 2003 - Palgrave MacMillan.
    The second edition of this classic text substantially revises and extends the original, so as to take account of theoretical and policy developments and to enhance its international scope.

  • Changing state feminism.Johanna Kantola & Joyce Outshoorn - 2007 - In Joyce Outshoorn & Johanna Kantola (eds.), Changing state feminism. New York: Palgrave-Macmillan.
    Most Western democracies established women's policy agencies to improve the status of women by the 1990s. However, the political context has changed drastically: developments such as welfare state reform, multilevel governance, regionalization and decentralization have impinged on opportunities for agencies and women's movements to mobilize. One of the book's key questions is how have women's policy agencies been able to develop, maintain or enhance their roles in the transformed political context and how have women's movements adapted to change in twelve (...)
