    International Journal of Communication 5 (2011), Book Review 639–643 1932–8036/2011BKR0639 Susan J. Douglas, Enlightened Sexism: The Seductive Message that Feminism's Work is Done, New York: Times Books, 2010, 368 pp, $26.00 (hardcover).1 Reviewed by Umayyah Cable University of Southern California With biting wit, Susan Douglas’ Enlightened Sexism: The Seductive Message that Feminism's Work is Done sets out to historicize the ever growing divide between the image and the reality of women in the United States. Refusing to fall for the trope of "post-feminism," Douglas is quick to point out that the current state of women's affairs is not reflective of the supposed successful completion of feminism, but is rather an indication of the insidious development of a cultural practice coined as "enlightened sexism." Defined as "feminist in its outward appearance . but sexist in its intent," enlightened sexism takes shape through carefully crafted representations of women that are "dedicated to the undoing of feminism" (p. 10). Douglas’ refusal of the conceptualization of this phenomenon as "post-feminism" stems from an astute observation that the current miserable state of women's affairs in the United States is not to be blamed on feminism (as the peddlers of enlightened sexism would have you think), but on "good, old-fashioned, grade-A sexism that reinforces good, old-fashioned, grade-A patriarchy" (p. 10). Aside from tracing the genealogy of enlightened sexism, this book emphasizes the sociopolitical consequences that are concealed beneath such a mentality, such as the systematic disenfranchisement of poor women and women of color under the so-called liberatory system of consumer capitalism, all while contradictory representations of women are disseminated as "proof" that the liberation of women has been achieved.

  • Production of Women in Afghanistan
    CANADIAN WOMEN AND THE (RE)PRODUCTION OF WOMEN IN AFGHANISTAN by Melanie Butler A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Political Science) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2008 © Melanie Butler, 2008 ABSTRACT Canadian women have been at the forefront of the international movement for women’s rights in Afghanistan since the rise of the Taliban in the late 1990s. Focusing on the prominent group Canadian Women for Women in Afghanistan (CW4WAfghan), this paper looks at the role its advocacy assumes in the context of the “War on Terror”. In Canada as in the United States, government agencies have justified the military invasion of Afghanistan by revitalizing the oppressed Muslim woman as a medium through which narratives of East versus West are performed. While CW4WAfghan attempt to challenge dominant narratives of Afghan women, they ultimately reinforce and naturalize the Orientalist logic on which the War on Terror operates, even helping to disseminate it through the Canadian school system. Drawing on post-colonial feminist theory, this paper highlights the implications of CW4WAfghan’s Orientalist discourse on women’s rights, and tackles the difficult question of how feminists can show solidarity with Afghan women without adhering to the oppressive narratives that permeate today’s political climate. It is only by employing alternative models that contextualize the situation of Afghan women in relation, rather than in opposition, to our own, that feminists can begin to subvert the mutually reinforcing narratives that sustain imperialist violence and women’s subordination.

  • Responding to Orientalist Feminism: Women's Rights and the War On
    Responding to Orientalist Feminism: Women’s Rights and the War on Terror Christina Ho Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Technology, Sydney E: [email protected] T: 02-9514-1946 ‘When George Bush mouths feminist slogans, it is feminism which loses its power’ (Viner 2002). Among many other legacies, the September 11 terrorist attacks will be remembered by some for catapulting women’s rights to the centre stage of global politics. As the US launched the War on Terror in Afghanistan and then Iraq, the liberation of women from barbaric regimes became a powerful rationale for intervention. Meanwhile, in post-9/11 Australia, protecting ‘Aussie’ women from sexual assault, and Muslim women from ‘oppression’ have become battlecries against the ‘barbarism’ of Arab and Muslim cultures. In many other Western nations too, concern for women’s rights has become politically mainstream. As Hester Eisenstein shows in her paper, the sudden concern for women has come from neo-conservatives like George W. Bush, who are not known for their support for feminism. Yet feminism is ‘essential’ to the War on Terror, Eisenstein writes, enabling Islamic societies to be condemned as ‘uniquely oppressive to women’ (2010, page 16 in the original paper). This paper analyses this approach as Orientalist feminism, a feminism that is ultimately about constructing a binary opposition between a civilised West and an uncivilised East. My main goal is to explore how feminists can respond to this discourse. 1 What is Orientalist feminism? Under the Bush Administration, the War on Terror and the fight for women’s rights became almost synonymous.

We also used this opportunity to organise open days for high school children in Geneva and an open day for the broader public. For both events a large number of participants turned up. It was rewarding to observe the enthusiasm of the participants and especially that of the younger participants. This encourages us to continue our commitment to education, training and communi- cation. In this context I would also like to mention the Wright Colloquium 2002 « Entering the Nano-World » organised on November 18-22, 2002 by the H. Dudley Wright Foundation, on a topic close to the scientific interest of MaNEP. The main theme of this issue is Scanning Probe Microscopy, with one article for non-specialists and a scientific article by Dr. Morten Eskildsen on how this technique can be used to study the new superconductor MgB2.
