Austerity, Women and the Role of the State: Lived Experiences of the Crisis

Vicki Dabrowski, "Austerity, Women and the Role of the State: Lived Experiences of the Crisis "
English | ISBN: 1529210526 | 2020 | 210 pages | PDF | 22 MB

Using interviews with women from diverse backgrounds, Dabrowski makes an invaluable contribution to the debates around the gendered politics of austerity in the UK. Exploring the symbiotic relationship between the state’s legitimization of austerity and women’s everyday experiences, she reveals how unjust policies are produced, how alternatives are silenced and highlights the different ways in which women are used or blamed. By understanding austerity as more than simply an economic project, this book fills important gaps in existing knowledge on state, gender and class relations in the context of UK austerity. Austerity, Women and the Role of the State is shortlisted for the 2021 BSA Philip Abrams Memorial Prize.
