| Abstract: | This article reviews theories that see gender as a social invention that has produced historically variable sets of norms and expectations that delineate differences and boundaries. following a relational, constructionist approach, these differences constitute a gender order that delineates a power hierarchy. The article reviews four articles in which the authors' voice challenges the validity of the taken-for-granted gender order and proposes agendas for change. It is argued that these authors articulate the experience of oppression within structures that marginalize some voices. |
