Gendered Encounters [EPUB ebook] 
Challenging Cultural Boundaries and Social Hierarchies in Africa

This book makes a significant contribution to contemporary debates on "globalization, " culture and gender. Focusing on intersections of the local and the global in Africa, contributors elucidate how translocal and transnational cultural currents are mediated by gender, how they reshape gender constructs and relations, and how they both manifest and impinge on relations of power.
