Gender, Imperialism and Global Exchanges presents a collection of original readings that address gendered dimensions of empire from a wide range of geographical and temporal settings. Drawing on original research on gender and empire in relation to labour, commodities, fashion, politics, mobility, and visuality, this book includes coverage of gender issues from countries in Africa, the Americas, Europe, and Asia between the eighteenth to twentieth centuries. It highlights a range of transnational and transregional connections across the globe and features innovative gender analyses of the circulation of people, ideas, and cultural practices.
