The “Focus on Gender” series makes available in book form the contents of the Oxfam journal “Gender and Development”. Highlighting practice as well as theory, the thematic series makes the resource available to students, researchers, practitioners and policy makers interested in particular topics. Topics discussed in this work include identity, meaning, and culture; the struggle of feminists from the South to gain legitimacy in Northern-dominated development debates; working to challenge restrictive gender roles in Zimbabwe; gender violence as a development issue; the use of rape as a weapon of war in Yugoslavia; and the use of popular culture and the media to promote gender equity.
