Demonstrates Shortcomings In Western Feminist Conceptualizations, And Shows How Insights From African Feminist Thinking May Enhance Understandings Of Gender, Both In And Beyond Africa.Winner Of The 2012 Gender Research Award Krakaprisen.This Book Is About Gender Politics In Mozambique Over Three Decades From 1975 To 2005. The Book Is Also About Different Ways Of Understanding Gender And Sexuality. Gender Policies From Portuguese Colonialism, Through Frelimo Socialism To Later Neoliberal Economic Regimes Share Certain Basic Assumptions About Men, Women And Gender Relations. But To What Extent Do Such Assumptions Fit The Ways In Which Rural Mozambican Men And Women See Themselves? A Major Line Of Argument In The Book Is That Gender Relations Should Be Investigated, Not Assumed, And That Policies Not Matching People'S Lives Are Not Likely To Succeed.The Empirical Data, On Which The Argument Is Based, Are First A Unique Body Of Data Material Collected 19821984 By The National Women'S Organization, The Omm [When The Author Was Employed As A Sociologist In The Organization] Andsecondly Data Resulting From More Recent Fieldwork In Northern Mozambique.Importantly Inspired By African Postcolonial Feminist Lines Of Thinking, The Book Engages In A Project Of Remapping And Reinterpreting 'Culture Andtradition'. In This Context, The Book Investigates In Particular Matriliny [C. 40 Per Cent Of Mozambique'S Population Live Under Conditions Of Matriliny] And Female Initiation. The Findings Open New Avenues For Gender Politics, And For Rethinking Sexuality And Gender In Africa And Beyond.Signe Arnfred Is Associate Professor, Dept Of Society & Globalization, And Centre For Gender, Power & Diversity, Roskilde University
