Gender and the Politics of Possibilities

Manisha Desai highlights the significant role that women play in cross-border trade in Africa, in transborder activism on issues that affect women, and in cultural change and social justice."--BOOK JACKET.

Manisha Desai is associate professor of sociology and women and gender in global perspectives at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
