Описание:
Even as beauty pageants have been critiqued as misogynistic and dated cultural vestiges of the past in the US and elsewhere, the pageant industry is growing in popularity across the Global South, and Nigeria is one of the countries at the forefront of this trend. In a country with over 1,000 reported pageants, these events are more than superficial forms of entertainment. Beauty Diplomacy takes us inside the world of Nigerian beauty contests to see how they are transformed into contested vehicles for promoting complex ideas about gender and power, ethnicity and belonging, and a rapidly changing articulation of Nigerian nationhood. Drawing on four case studies of beauty pageants, this book examines how Nigeria's changing position in the global political economy and existing cultural tensions inform varied forms of embodied nationalism, where contestants are expected to integrate recognizable elements of Nigerian cultural identity while also conveying a narrative of a newly-emerging, globally-relevant Nigeria. Oluwakemi M. Balogun critically examines Nigerian pageants in the context of major transitions within the nation-state, using these events as a lens through which to understand Nigerian national identity and international relations.

Описание: <p>Changes in the global economy have real and contradictory outcomes for the everyday lives of women workers. In 2001, Nancy Plankey-Videla had a rare opportunity to witness these effects firsthand. Having secured access to one of Latin America’s top producers of high-end men’s suits in Mexico for participant-observer research, she laboured as a machine operator for nine months on a shop floor made up, mostly, of women. The firm had recently transformed itself from traditional assembly techniques, to lean, cutting-edge, Japanese-style production methods. Lured initially into the firm by way of increased wages and benefits, workers had helped shoulder the company’s increasing debts. When the company’s plan for successful expansion went awry and it reneged on promises it had made to the workforce, women workers responded by walking out on strike. </p> <p>Building upon in-depth interviews with over sixty workers, managers, and policy makers, Plankey-videla documents and analyses events leading up to the female-led factory strike and its aftermath—including harassment from managers, corrupt union officials and labour authorities, and violent governor-sanctioned police actions. <em>We Are in This Dance Together</em> illustrates how the women’s shared identity as workers and mothers—deserving of dignity, respect, and a living wage— became the basis for radicalisation and led to further civic organising against the state, the company, and the corrupt union to demand justice. </p>
