Описание: Contemporary popular culture stereotypes Filipina women as sex workers, domestic laborers, mail order brides, and caregivers. These figures embody the gendered and sexual politics of representing the Philippine nation in the Filipina/o diaspora. Gina K. Velasco explores the tensions within Filipina/o American cultural production between feminist and queer critiques of the nation and popular nationalism as a form of resistance to neoimperialism and globalization.
Using a queer diasporic analysis, Velasco examines the politics of nationalism within Filipina/o American cultural production to consider an essential question: can a queer and feminist imagining of the diaspora reconcile with gendered tropes of the Philippine nation? Integrating a transnational feminist analysis of globalized gendered labor with a consideration of queer cultural politics, Velasco envisions forms of feminist and queer diasporic belonging, while simultaneously foregrounding nationalist movements as vital instruments of struggle.

Описание: "Mimi, you are going to America " My life's journey began in a village on the island of Bohol. It was there that my parents gave me up for adoption to my mother's older sister - Auntie Crispina, also called Auntie Pining, who lived in America. Sadly, Auntie Pining lost her two young children and her first husband during World War II. After the war, Auntie Pining who was a risk-taker journeyed by herself to the U.S., met and married Uncle Diego in California, and because they had no children of their own decided to adopt one of my birth mother's nine children. I remember one afternoon in 1958, when I was only eight years old, while walking home from school I saw my mother in the distance walking quickly towards me and calling out my name "Mimi," which was my family nickname. She seemed excited but somewhat sad at the same time. She said, "Mimi, you are going to America. You are going to school and live with your aunt and uncle in California. Isn't that wonderful?" My response was one of innocence and ignorance. I did not know where America was and how far away it was, but I had heard it was a beautiful place; rich, with streets paved with gold. So I said, as I hugged my mother, "Wow, I am going to America." This is an excerpt from one of the stories in the 2nd book of the FWN Filipina Women Leadership Series. It tracks a young Filipina girl's leadership journey. DISRUPT 2.0. Filipina Women: Daring to Lead is designed to highlight the leadership competencies of successful global Filipina women. The Filipina women leaders who shared their leadership stories in both books have been awarded either a Global FWN100(TM) award (after 2013) or a U.S. FWN100(TM) award (2007-2012) or both. FWN established the award as part of its strategy to recognize Filipina woman leaders in every economic sector. DISRUPT 2.0 celebrates, affirms, and acknowledges Filipina women whose vision and impact go beyond the boundaries of the Philippines. This book is a celebration of Filipina women who have achieved success in their professional careers and made a difference by their practice of leadership; an affirmation of the leadership competencies of Filipina women with a global mindset. The book's purpose is to inspire, motivate, and nurture women world-wide, not just Filipina women, who: - Have leadership responsibilities in cross-cultural and global situations; - Seek leadership development opportunities in the diaspora environment; and - Teach leadership not only to inform but also to transform. The work of the Filipina Women's Network (FWN) is pivotal in the process of recognizing the leadership of Filipina women through the annual FWN100(TM) Global awards. This book examines the leadership themes that were successfully used in various global settings. The competencies which constitute the "how" of leadership are significant, but the greater significance is the "why" of leadership. The "why" of leadership for most of these women made reference to finding purpose and meaning in life, achieving impact in their work, and giving back to their local communities. The authors examined their leadership qualities, their leadership actions, and their own leadership development process. Despite experiencing disruptions in their lives, the authors keep taking additional steps forward. In their own unique ways, these women disrupted the status quo and became strategists. Disrupt 1.0 ended with leadership tips. Disrupt 2.0 authors focused on the leadership competencies they have learned over time. FWN Founder and CEO, Marily Mondejar, inspired the use of the Center for Creative Leadership's "Benchmarks by Design" as a guide for the authors: 1. What skills and competencies got you to where you are today? 2. What skills and competencies did you have to learn that got you to the next leadership level? 3. What skills and competencies do you need to acquire or learn to sustain your current leadership level?
Описание: Based on the case of migrant Filipina live-in domestic workers in Greece, this book focuses on the repercussions of precarious, low-status/low-wage occupations on their participation in primary and secondary groups of solidarity and on their representation in them (ie: family and community, migrant community associations and trade unions) and their access to healthcare services.

Описание:
In this groundbreaking study, Denise Cruz investigates the importance of the figure she terms the "transpacific Filipina" to Philippine nationalism, women's suffrage, and constructions of modernity. Her analysis illuminates connections between the rise in the number of Philippine works produced in English and the emergence of new social classes of transpacific women during the early to mid-twentieth century.
Through a careful study of multiple texts produced by Filipina and Filipino writers in the Philippines and the United States—including novels and short stories, newspaper and magazine articles, conduct manuals, and editorial cartoons—Cruz provides a new archive and fresh perspectives for understanding Philippine literature and culture. She demonstrates that the modern Filipina did not emerge as a simple byproduct of American and Spanish colonial regimes, but rather was the result of political, economic, and cultural interactions among the Philippines, Spain, the United States, and Japan. Cruz shows how the complex interplay of feminism, nationalism, empire, and modernity helped to shape, and were shaped by, conceptions of the transpacific Filipina.

Описание: Die Adelsforschung der zur ckliegenden Jahrzehnte hat vor allem die beeindruckende Selbstbehauptung des deutschen Adels im 19. und fr hen 20. Jahrhundert herausgearbeitet. Trotz erfolgreicher Statusverteidigung kann letztlich jedoch kein Zweifel daran bestehen, dass der langfristige Machtverlust des Adels in seiner Gesamtheit, des Adels als Stand, seit dem Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts unvermeidbar war. Seine Geschichte im Verlauf des s kularen Modernisierungsprozesses muss deshalb, trotz aller Selbstbehauptung, am Ende doch als die Geschichte eines langen, immer wieder stark gebremsten, mehrfach unterbrochenen und abgelenkten Abstiegs beschrieben werden - ein langer Abschied von Macht und Ehre. Dieser spannungsvolle Befund verlangt, das Deutungs- und Darstellungsmodell der u erst folgenreichen Geschichte einer Selbstbehauptung des Adels korrigierender Kritik zu unterziehen. Das Bem hen, eine "wirkliche Aristokratie" im Sinne Max Webers zu bilden, ist in vielen Handlungsfeldern, in denen sich Adlige und B rgerliche begegneten, erkennbar. Aber es scheint so, dass es im 19. und fr hen 20. Jahrhundert in fast allen seinen Anl ufen gescheitert ist. Es fragt sich, was die Gr nde dieses Scheiterns waren. Bedeutungsverlust und Beharrungserfolg des deutschen Adels im Wandel des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts sind in der bisherigen Forschung ganz berwiegend mit dualen, linearen Mustern der Klassenkonkurrenz erkl rt worden. Das Publikationsprojekt "Elitenwandel in der Moderne" zielt darauf, Studien zu ver ffentlichen, die Korrekturen zu dieser Perspektive erarbeitet haben. Pressestimmen: "In den letzten Jahren sind zahlreiche eindrucksvolle empirische Studien zur Adelsgeschichte entstanden, die z.T. von Heinz Reif direkt angeregt, unterst tzt und begleitet unser Bild vom 'Adel' erheblich differenziert, relativiert und korrigiert haben."
