"An invaluable guide to understanding and dismantling sexism for parents trying to raise confident and powerful girls in a culture that often demeans them. We live in a world of mixed messages for women: You can be anything you want to be, but don't expect to be paid equally for it. It's what's inside that counts, but be sure to wax, bleach, and slim down what's outside first. Most parents find it easier to tell girls how strong and equal they are than to talk about how the world can be particularly difficult or scary for them. But when we don't address the challenging or disturbing experiences most girls endure, we contribute to the problem. Jo-Ann Finkelstein, a Harvard-educated psychologist who has worked with girls of all ages for two decades, unpacks the universal experiences that girls live with and helps parents safeguard and fine-tune their daughters' natural "sexism detectors." An urgently needed resource for proactive parenting, Sexism and Sensibility is an essential tool to help girls make sense of how they will likely be treated in the world before that treatment erodes their self-esteem"--

En 1896, les parents d’un enfant de deux ans poursuivirent la Southern Railroad Company of Georgia pour le décès de leur fils dans un accident ferroviaire. Ils plaidèrent en vain que l’enfant leur rendait des services précieux « en allant faire des courses chez les voisins, en surveillant et en amusant leur cadet ». En 1979, un enfant âgé de 3 ans mourut d’une dose mortelle de fluorure dans une clinique dentaire publique ; le jury de la Cour suprême de l’État de New York accorda 750 000 dollars aux parents de l’enfant. Que s’est-il passé entre ces deux dates ?Viviana A. Zelizer montre comment s’est opéré, entre 1870 et 1930, un double mouvement de sacralisation de l’enfance et de monétarisation de l’économie. Dédommagements, assurances-décès, adoption... À travers une série de controverses, ce livre retrace la genèse et les contradictions d’un xxe siècle qui interdit de penser économiquement les affects tout en ne cessant d'en fixer le prix. Devenu un classique aux États-Unis mais inédit en français, il ouvre de précieux horizons pour qui souhaite rompre avec ce modèle économique et moral.
