Thank you for subscribingWe have more newslettersShow meSee ourprivacy notice Invalid Email In July of last year when Theresa May became only the second female Prime Minister in British history, much of the media coverage focused on her gender and on her reported fetish for footwear. For the Sun , she was the shoe fanatic whose childhood dream was to be a politician. Goody Two Shoes said the Mirror . Theresa’s fancy footwork gets her the job, said the Daily Star . Such attention was entirely predictable. Mrs May, like any other female politician, is predominantly defined by her sexuality. In 2015, her appearance in Parliament on Budget day threatened to overshadow the Chancellor’s statement. The "1950s called and asked for their headline back" In the Daily Mail , sketch writer Quentin Letts recorded that (note familiar use of first name): “Theresa sat in a suit so low cut she could have been taken for Sam Fox”. An accompanying picture illustrated his point. Then, in March this year the same newspaper published a front page photo colour photograph of the Prime Minister and Scottish leader Nicola Sturgeon sitting beside each other.

  • Sex Work: a Survey of Social, Philosophical and Human Rights Issues
    Int. J. Green Economics, Vol. 3, No. 1, 2009 93 Sex work: a survey of social, philosophical and human rights issues Natalie Bennett 56 Walker House, London, NW1 1EP, UK E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This paper looks at the social, philosophical and human rights issues around sex work, concluding that the so-called ‘New Zealand model’ of decriminalisation and labour protection is more compatible with the fundamental human rights of sex workers and the ‘right of protection’, which is one of green economics’ key concerns, than the alternative models provided by Sweden or the USA. Keywords: prostitution; sex work; human rights; decriminalisation. Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Bennett, N. (2009) ‘Sex work: a survey of social, philosophical and human rights issues’, Int. J. Green Economics, Vol. 3, No. 1, pp.93–100. Biographical notes: Natalie Bennett is a Journalist and feminist, founder of the blog Carnival of Feminists and Editor of the Guardian Weekly newspaper. She has worked as a United Nations Consultant in Asia on women’s issues and on child labour and for the Thai government on its report on the Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women. 1 Introduction 1.1 Why? You might be surprised to find yourself opening an economics journal reading a paper on sex work – at least a paper that is not narrowly focused on the ‘economics’ of prostitution – supply, demand, prices, etc. (such research has been conducted).1 Yet sex work is undeniably an aspect of the economy, as defined both traditionally and in green economics.

  • Feminism Then and Now
    feminists@law Vol 4, No 1 (2014) ______________________________________________________________________________ Feminism Then and Now Introduction – Sarah Keenan* On 21 January 2014 the LSE Gender Institute held a discussion panel on ‘Feminism Then and Now’, the first in its series of ‘Conversations’ to welcome The Women’s Library collection to the school. The panel consisted of writer Yasmin Alibhai-Brown, Green Party leader Natalie Bennett, Freedom Without Fear Platform activist Camille Kumar, University of Bristol researcher Finn Mackay, Southall Black Sisters activist Pragna Patel, and Birkbeck Professor Lynne Segal. In the same packed lecture theatre which just two months earlier held a debate on whether rape is ‘different’, and in the same week as UKIP leader Nigel Farage spoke in a neighbouring LSE lecture theatre about his take on this year’s upcoming European elections, the panel reflected on changes and consistencies in feminist activism, primarily in England, over multiple generations. A number of the panellists mentioned the enemy of neoliberalism, and Kumar and Bennett extended that idea to give an analysis explicitly acknowledging the 2012-2013 campaign to save The Women’s Library from being purchased by, and then relocated to, the LSE. While the LSE is publicly celebrating the arrival of The Women’s Library, this move represents a defeat for the Save The Women’s Library campaign both in terms of the collection being bought by a relatively wealthy and elitist university from a poorer and traditionally working class one (London Met), and in terms of its consequent relocation from its purpose-built, explicitly feminist space in East London to the highly securitised and, for many women, intimidating halls of the LSE library in Holborn.

Abstract This dissertation’s object of study is the contemporary trend of femvertising, where seemingly pro-women sentiments are used to sell products. I argue that this commodified version of feminism is highly curated, superficial, and docile, but also popular with advertisers and consumers alike. The core question at the centre of this research is how commercial feminism—epitomized by the trend of femvertising—influences the feminist discursive field. Initially, I situate femvertising within the wider trend of consumer feminism and consider the implications of a marketplace that speaks the language of feminism.

  • Better Europe for a Better Greens
    GREENS A BETTER FOR EUROPE – Sir Mark Rylance – While Greens in the UK have always suffered from a grossly unfair electoral system, in the European Union they have been able to flourish as part of a small but GREENS effective group of European Greens since their first election in 1999. Greens have had a significant influence on the policies impacting more than 500 million EU citizens, underlining environmental standards and challenging FOR economic and social orthodoxy. While Greens have often been marginalised by the political and media elites in Britain, across Europe, Greens have been seen as ‘the voice of reason’ and the ‘adults in the room’. A With Brexit threatening our ongoing influence on European policy-making, former and current UK Green MEPs Caroline Lucas, Jean Lambert, Keith Taylor and Molly Scott Cato reflect on their time in Brussels and chart a course for the party’s new relationship with the BETTER EU-wide Green movement. This guide to two decades of UK Green achievements in Europe also brings together analysis from prominent academics, journalists, campaigners and Green MEPs from across the EU.

  • Do Women Need Feminism?
    MDI Transcript – 28 February 2013 Do Women Need Feminism? by Zara Huda Faris This is the official MDI Transcript of the opening presentation of Zara Huda Faris’ (Muslim Researcher and Speaker for MDI), which was delivered at the debate with Natalie Bennett (UK Green Party Leader), ‘Do Women Need Feminism’, held on 28 February 2013. It is claimed that women need feminism because there are women who suffer injustice – but this ignores that nearly all human beings will suffer injustice at some point in their lives at the hands of other men or women – and justice for only one group of society, to the exclusion of another, is like a bird with only one wing – it just does not fly. Men have a fundamental need for justice just the same as women do – and whilst the very word „feminism‟ discriminates, the word „justice‟ does not. Justice means giving people what they deserve or merit but, as we will see, feminism and justice are not synonymous. Feminism is a highly ambiguous term, straitjacketing instead of liberating, it is the call for gender privilege masquerading as equality. In essence, feminism denies the human reality, it is unclear, and not a cause for justice. Feminism is unjust To begin. Feminists advocate that women have traditionally been dehumanised by a male dominated society, which they call the patriarchy; and that it has always been better to be a man. But this one-sided claim snubs the privileges that women have often enjoyed simply for being women. The dynamics of society, at the most basic level, show that it has actually always been better to be a woman.
