Beth published a chapter in Dana-Ain Davis and Christa Craven’s edited volume Feminist Activist Ethnography: Counterpoints to Neoliberalism in North America.
Book blurb
Writing in the wake of neoliberalism, where human rights and social justice have increasingly been subordinated to proliferating “consumer choices” and ideals of market justice, the contributors to this collection argue that feminist ethnographers are in a key position to reassert the central feminist connections between theory, methods, and activism.
Chapter
Based on ethnographic research within the transnational women’s human rights system, my chapter explicates how neoliberal formations of labor and exchange compromise the feminist origins and political positioning of international organizations tasked with securing human rights protections.
