Towards a genealogy of the gender space of politics.
2017
El artículo pretende trazar, en la edad clásica de nuestra civilización occidental, el esquema lógico binario del que sobresale la división de género del espacio político. Esta se fundamenta en la tensión excluyente que encierra la polis y el oikos en dos distintas dimensiones, caracterizadas por una discordancia constitutiva de la ciudadanía y de la subordinación femenina. Finalmente se evocan brevemente dos líneas de fuga representadas por las figuras corpóreas de Penélope y de Antígona. The aim of this article is to trace a logical, binary outline of the classical period of western civilisation, from which the gender division of political space has emerged. This gender division has been …

‘World-class’ fantasies : A neocolonial analysis of international branch campuses
2018
In this article, we build on postcolonial studies and discourse analytical research exploring how the ‘world-class’ discourse as an ideology and a fantasy structures neocolonial relations in international branch campuses. We empirically examine how international branch campuses reproduce the fantasy of being so-called world-class operators and how the onsite faculty members identify with or resist this world-class fantasy through mimicry. Our research material originates from fieldwork conducted in business-school international branch campuses operating in the United Arab Emirates. Our findings show the ambivalent nature of mimicry towards the world-class fantasy to include both compliance …
Parents' math-gender stereotypes, children's self-perception of ability, and children's appraisal of parents' evaluations in 6-year-olds
2015
Abstract This study investigated for the first time the relations between parents' math–gender stereotypes, parents' evaluations of children's math ability, children's math ability self-perception, and children's appraisal of parents' evaluations, addressing 253 Italian children as young as 6 years of age, their mothers, fathers, and teachers. Novel results revealed the specific role of mothers' math–gender stereotypes in relation to daughters, but not sons: Mothers' math–gender stereotypes predicted girls' math self-perception which, in turn, predicted girls' appraisal of both mothers' and fathers' evaluations of their ability. Importantly, children's appraisal of parents' evaluations was …
Timing Motherhood: Experiencing and Narrating the Choice to Become a Mother
2005
The decision to become a mother is a multilayered process that is not wholly rational, clear-cut, or conscious. The aim of this study is to present four different stories about the choice of becoming a mother collected from pregnant women living in heterosexual relationships. The women’s stories are explored through the desires and ambivalences of embodied, relational and emotional female subjects. Crucial to the choice of becoming a mother are: first, the timing of motherhood, which is attached to social and cultural narratives concerning ‘good’ mothering and a ‘reasonable’ female life course; second, the ambivalences encountered in choosing to become a mother; and, third, the link betwee…
