Neoliberal Feminism and the Discourse of Self-Improvement
Neoliberal Feminism and the Discourse of Self-Improvement utilises feminist critical discourse analysis to examine the language and narratives within selfhelp literature targeted at women. Giuliana Ferri critically explores the discourse of self-improvement, focusing on how neoliberal values of empowerment and individual fulfilment have been co-opted by elite feminism as a “technology of the self”. She unpacks how this discourse constructs an idealised image of the “empowered woman”—one who is portrayed as capable of overcoming patriarchy through the affirmation of innate strength and resilience. Drawing on Marxist feminism and feminist social reproduction theory, the book highlights how neoliberal feminism markets women as entrepreneurs, “badass feminists”, and successful working mothers, all while obscuring the realities of increasing work precarization and flexibilisation in post-industrial societies. Through its feminist critical discourse analysis, the book reveals how these seemingly empowering narratives shift the responsibility for systemic change onto individuals, rather than positioning feminism as a collective, anti-capitalist movement for liberation. By integrating applied linguistics with Marxist feminism and social reproduction theory, this text provides a unique interdisciplinary perspective, making it a key reading for scholars and students of language, gender, and economic systems.

The Sage International Encyclopedia of Politics and Gender
This four-volume encyclopedia set is organized to allow the reader to explore gender and politics from an updated interdisciplinary, intersectional, and global perspective. The organization format will be an A-Z approach of approximately 500-600 entries (with entries ranging in word count from 1,500-3,000 words, with some entries on foundational topics at around 5,000). Coverage will examine both the role gender plays within the realm of politics (political participation, leadership, etc.) as well as policies that are based in gender (abortion and reproductive policies, transgender rights, etc.). Foundational topics will include entries such as "International Security and Gender," which will introduce gender and war, human trafficking, gender and militarism, and women and terrorism; and, "International Relations and Gender," which will introduce topics such as gender mainstreaming, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), and eco-feminism. A "Comparative Politics" foundational entry will focus on research areas surrounding political representation and participation, legislative processes, and law such as: gender quotas, gender gap in political participation and leadership, intersectionality (and barriers in representation and leadership), Ni Unos Menos/Not One Less Movement (recent significant activist movements), and transgender specific law. Concepts connected to feminist and queer theory as applied in regional studies will also be covered. For example, "marianismo" or the connection between Catholicism and gender roles in Latin American and Latinx communities, Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) voters and political mobilization, and LGBQTIA leaders and social movements will be included. This encyclopedia will be essential for any undergraduate or graduate course on gender studies (in gender studies programs as well as sociology, political science, history or other related programs/disciplines), gender and politics, international relations and gender or area specific courses such as Gender and Latin American Politics or Gender and African Studies.
