{"product_id":"girl-power-1","title":"‘Girl Power’","description":"\u003ci\u003e‘Girl Power’: Girls Reinventing Girlhood\u003c\/i\u003e examines the identity practices of girls who have grown up in the context of ‘girl power’ culture. The book asks whether – and which – girls have benefited from this feminist-inspired movement. Can girls truly become anything they want, as suggested by those who claim that the traditional mandate of femininity – compliance to male interests – is a thing of the past? To address such questions, the authors distinguish between ‘girlhood’ as a cultural ideal, and girls as the embodied agents through which girlhood becomes a social accomplishment. The book identifies significant issues for parents and teachers of girls, and offers suggestions for ‘critical social literacy’ as a classroom practice that recognizes the ways popular culture mediates young people’s understanding of gender. \u003ci\u003e‘Girl Power’\u003c\/i\u003e will be of interest to researchers of contemporary gender identities, as well as educational professionals and adult girl advocates. It is relevant for students in gender studies and teacher-education courses, as well as graduate student researchers.","brand":"Peter Lang Publishing Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54231117267288,"sku":"9781433105715","price":100.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781433105715.jpg?v=1777176030","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/girl-power-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
