Both interpretations ignore the social aspects of these activities. In this study, based on my interviews with 49 secretaries, I first highlight a small group of women who enjoy donning the characteristics of motherhood at their jobs. I analyze their approach to work not as an example of their gendered essence but as a reasonable response to the social experiences of their lives. I then focus on an approach to work that may seem like nurturing but goes even beyond that; I call this the ethic of service. The secretaries in this group speak similarly about the ways their occupations allow them to fulfill their desire to serve humanity. The character of these women's convictions about service incorporates the feeling that they are \"on this earth for a purpose,\" and that the purpose is to \"do good\" in some way, which they have been able to translate into tasks of public service in their occupations. I explore the structures of opportunities and constraints under which women working as secretaries enact the activities of nurturing and public service in their jobs.","PeriodicalId":88071,"journal":{"name":"NWSA journal : a publication of the National Women's Studies Association","volume":"18 1","pages":"170 - 192"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69200329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Between "Girl Power" and "Reviving Ophelia": Constituting the Neoliberal Girl Subject 在“女孩力量”与“复兴奥菲莉亚”之间:构成新自由主义的女孩主体

These are the multi-stranded \"Girl Power\" and \"Reviving Ophelia,\" which both emerged in the early 1990s. I argue that \"Girl Power\" and \"Reviving Ophelia\" set up an intriguing illustration of not only competing definitions of femininity but also how discourses may interpellate feminine/feminist subjects in a non-unitary way. At first glance, the two discourses seem to offer opposing significations of femininity. On the one hand, \"Girl Power\" represents a \"new girl,\" assertive, dynamic, and unbound from the constraints of femininity. On the other hand,\"Reviving Ophelia\" presents girls as vulnerable, passive, voiceless, and fragile. However, this article demonstrates that it is also possible to view the two discourses as other than opposing, competing, and contradictory. Rather, this article investigates how the two discourses position girls in varying ways in relation to the emerging configurations of subjectification demanded by shifting relations of production, globalizing economies, and redefined relationships between governments and citizens related to the rise of neoliberal policy and practice.","PeriodicalId":88071,"journal":{"name":"NWSA journal : a publication of the National Women's Studies Association","volume":"18 1","pages":"1 - 23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69200073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sekhon","doi":"10.2979/NWS.2006.18.2.101","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2979/NWS.2006.18.2.101","url":null,"abstract":"The author discusses efforts to promote women's effective participation in electoral politics in rural India as an illustration of feminist politics and participatory democracy. She argues that feminist rethinking of politics and democracy can catalyze women's effective participation and challenge the structures of patriarchy that limit political action and social mobility. The opportunity for women's widespread participation in local elections came as a result of the 73rd Amendment to the Indian Constitution in 1993, reserving 33 percent of elected seats in village councils for female candidates. That alone, however, is not enough, as women are limited by a variety of social, cultural, economic, and political factors, such as traditional gendered expectations of the role and position of women in the family and community, caste and class inequalities, lack of education, and lack of knowledge of the laws. In this article, the author analyzes the role of social movement organizations engaged in participatory action research, training, advocacy, and networking with and for women at the grassroots level. Detailed exposition of the work of Aalochana, a feminist organization in the western Indian state of Maharashtra, provides insight into the possibilities and challenges of feminist politics to engender grassroots democracy.","PeriodicalId":88071,"journal":{"name":"NWSA journal : a publication of the National Women's Studies Association","volume":"18 1","pages":"101 - 122"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69200280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
