Beschreibung

The Routledge Companion to Gender and COVID-19 is the first comprehensive research guide for researchers and students who seek to study and evaluate the complex relationship between gender and COVID-19.

This interdisciplinary collection touches on two major themes: first, how gender played a central role in shaping access to testing, treatment, and vaccines. Second, how the pandemic not only deepened existing gender inequalities, but also those along the lines of race, class, sexuality, disability, and immigration status.

Bringing together a diverse range of international scholars across a number of disciplinary perspectives, this intersectional and comparative focus on COVID explores topics including the pandemic's impact on families, employment, childcare and elder care, human rights, as well as gender and political economy and leadership, public health law, disability rights, and abortion access.

The Routledge Companion to Gender and COVID-19 is an essential volume for scholars and students of Law, Gender Studies, Sociology, Health, Economics, and Politics.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Arundhati Roy famously urged us to use the pandemic as a portal to a more just future. This powerful collection reveals the gendered paradoxes of COVID-from intersectional, comparative, and interdisciplinary perspectives- uncovering alarming insights and offering thoughtful solutions that call for a new ethics, politics, and law of care, community, and connection, even while our pandemics of inequality, poverty, and disinformation continue to rage."

Catherine Powell, Eunice Carter Distinguished Research Scholar Professor of Law, Fordham Law School

"In 1966, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. famously said, out of "all the forms of inequality, injustice in health is the most shocking and inhuman." Those words were prescient and surfaced powerfully during the triple pandemics of COVID-19, systemic racism, and sexism - with both the "color and gender of COVID-19" on vivid display. This essential volume allows us to understand the intersectional way that gendered and raced effects operate using the "pandemic as a portal" to expose how COVID-19 exacerbates preexisting disparities and amplifies their disparate impact. This insightful book helps us to consider more fully how to rectify health inequities."

Matiangai Sirleaf, Nathan Patz Professor of Law, University of Maryland, Francis King Carey School of Law

"This volume exemplifies how sex and gender influence health through an important, unique set of multidisciplinary, multi-country analyses. While the effects of COVID-19 are acute in our memory-and continue to surface in everyday life-this volume provides us with analytical approaches that should inform policy and research for years to come. As the pieces from India illustrate, public health understanding or action is incomplete without incisive analyses of the legal, economic and social forces that shape it."

Sapna Desai, Senior Fellow, Population Council Institute, India; Member, India Task Force of the Lancet Commission on COVID-19

"The Routledge Companion to Gender and Covid is a timely volume which helps readers to reflect on government responses and recovery initiatives. It discusses the possibilities and challenges of policies and responses that serve as a resource for dealing with future pandemics. It is a must-read for policymakers and researchers who are working on gender, health and reproductive health, law and diseases."

Melody Kshetrimayum, FLAME University, Pune, India
