Workshop: 'Gendering Internationalism -- Gendering Jewish Internationalism'
Places are limited and registration is essential
Gendering Internationalism – Gendering Jewish Internationalism
12-13 March
Weston Library | Brasenose College, Oxford
This workshop has two aims: first, to bring considerations of gender into international history; second, to reconceptualise international Jewish history as having a gendered dimension. This focus on the experience of a particular group of actors will allow for a more systematic engagement with the conceptual issues involved in gendering internationalism.
The workshop will explore how hierarchical relations between men and women, social and cultural constructions of masculinity/femininity, organizational structures and asymmetries, division of labor along gender lines, and relationships among activists vary according to certain gender dynamics, and how they interacted with a variety of internationalist commitments, ideologies, and causes.
