{"product_id":"9780813555416","title":"Bodies in Crisis: Culture, Violence, and Women's Resistance in Neoliberal Argentina","description":"\u003cbr\u003eBorn and raised in Argentina and still maintaining significant ties to the area, Barbara Sutton examines the complex, and often hidden, bodily worlds of diverse women in that country during a period of profound social upheaval. Based primarily on women's experiential narratives and set against the backdrop of a severe economic crisis and intensified social movement activism post-2001, \u003ci\u003eBodies in Crisis\u003c\/i\u003e illuminates how multiple forms of injustice converge in and are contested through women's bodies. Sutton reveals the bodily scars of neoliberal globalization; women's negotiation of cultural norms of femininity and beauty; experiences with clandestine, illegal, and unsafe abortions; exposure to and resistance against interpersonal and structural violence; and the role of bodies as tools and vehicles of political action.\u003cp\u003eThrough the lens of women's body consciousness in a Global South country, and drawing on multifaceted stories and a politically embedded approach, \u003ci\u003eBodies in Crisis\u003c\/i\u003e suggests that social policy, economic systems, cultural ideologies, and political resistance are ultimately fleshly matters.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rutgers University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079921877232,"sku":"9780813555416","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780813555416_p0.jpg?v=1763744973","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780813555416","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
