Explore 'The Gender Order of Neoliberalism', an enlightening book that delves deeply into the gendered dimensions of neoliberalism. This essential read reveals how various groups, including mompreneurs, working-class men, and migrant domestic workers, are all affected by the complex intersections of gender and global capitalism. Authors Radhakrishnan and Solari provide a thorough analysis of the contemporary economic landscape, illustrating how neoliberal policies shape the experiences of diverse genders across the world.

This riveting exploration covers pivotal regions such as the US, former Soviet Union, and South and Southeast Asia, linking them through the intertwined historical narratives of imperialism, socialism, and postcolonialism. The authors argue that since the fall of the Soviet Union, a new economic gender order has emerged, repositioning ideals of womanhood, entrepreneurship, and empowerment. This ideal often masks the stark gap between ambition and reality, igniting a sense of discontent that resonates across demographics.

By integrating robust empirical data with insightful social theory, 'The Gender Order of Neoliberalism' challenges our understanding of gender roles within capitalism. This work not only highlights the struggle for gender equality in today’s neoliberal framework but also seeks inspiration from grassroots movements worldwide to create a more equitable future. Ideal for scholars, activists, and anyone interested in gender studies, social justice, and global economics, this book is a must-read for understanding the current landscape of gender politics in a neoliberal context.
