"This collection is a well-imagined, important, incisive contribution to the fields of girlhood studies, development studies, and gender studies that deftly exposes the contradictions, complications, and limits of the "Girls in Development" paradigm and the ways it shapes the current landscape of development and thus the lives of girls around the world." * Jessica Taft, University of California Santa CruzMore details
