Abstract

In Practising Feminism, contributors drawn from a range of backgrounds in anthropology, sociology and social psychology, explore different ways of practising feminism and their effect on gendered identities.

Recasting Ritual explores how ritualized action diversifies in response to varying cultural, political and physical contexts.
