Moore Female "circumcision" or, more precisely, female genital cutting (FGC), remains an important cultural practice in many African countries, often serving as a coming-of-age ritual. It is also a practice that has generated international dispute and continues to be at the center of debates over women's rights, the limits of cultural pluralism, the balance of power between local cultures, international human rights, and feminist activism. In our increasingly globalized world, these practices have also begun immigrating to other nations, where transnational complexities vex debates about how to resolve the issue. Bringing together thirteen essays, Transcultural Bodies provides an ethnographically rich exploration of FGC among African diasporas in the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia. Contributors analyze changes in ideologies of gender and sexuality in immigrant communities, the frequent marginalization of African women's voices in debates over FGC, and controversies over legislation restricting the practice in immigrant populations |

Elise B. Johansen -- "Ain't I a woman too?" : challenging myths of sexual dysfunction in circumcised women / Fuambai Ahmadu -- The failure of pluralism? / Henrietta L. Moore Female "circumcision" or, more precisely, female genital cutting (FGC), remains an important cultural practice in many African countries, often serving as a coming-of-age ritual. It is also a practice that has generated international dispute and continues to be at the center of debates over women's rights, the limits of cultural pluralism, the balance of power between local cultures, international human rights, and feminist activism. In our increasingly globalized world, these practices have also begun immigrating to other nations, where transnational complexities vex debates about how to resolve the issue. Bringing together thirteen essays, Transcultural Bodies provides an ethnographically rich exploration of FGC among African diasporas in the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia. Contributors analyze changes in ideologies of gender and sexuality in immigrant communities, the frequent marginalization of African women's voices in debates over FGC, and controversies over legislation restricting the practice in immigrant populations SOCIAL SCIENCE / Customs & Traditions bisacsh SOCIAL SCIENCE / Gender Studies bisacsh SOCIAL SCIENCE / Feminism & Feminist Theory bisacsh MEDICAL / Gynecology & Obstetrics bisacsh Anthropology, Cultural Circumcision, Female Orgasm / physiology Kulturanthropologie swd Beschneidung <Frau> swd SOCIAL SCIENCE / Women's Studies bisacsh Female circumcision fast Infibulation fast Medizin Female circumcision Infibulation Beschneidung Frau (DE-588)7648122-0 gnd rswk-swf Kulturanthropologie (DE-588)4133903-4 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Beschneidung Frau (DE-588)7648122-0 s Kulturanthropologie (DE-588)4133903-4 s 2\p DE-604 Hernlund, Ylva Sonstige oth Shell-Duncan, Bettina Sonstige oth Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 0-8135-4025-9 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-8135-4025-2 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=473302 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
