520 _a[18:02, 15/02/2022] Rashid Ali: Communicating Gender Diversity: A Critical Approach examines the variety of ways in which communication of and about gender enables and constrains people's intersectional identities. Authors Victoria Pruin DeFrancisco and Catherine Helen Palczewski place an emphasis on how communication facilitates how people do gender. Operating from a gender diversity perspective, Communicating Gender Diversity explores how gender is constructed through interpersonal and public discourse about and in the institutions of family, education, work, religion, and media. . Key Features Offers an intersectional approach: The text does not treat gender as some immutable and isolatable category, but recognizes the way identity ingredients intersect with, and influence, one another. Integrates social scientific, critical/cultural, and rhetorical analyses: This text examines how gender is something people do and perform, not something they are. Critical, cultural, and rhetorical perspectives offer insight into how the performative element of gender operates. Moves beyond an individual, personal understanding of gender: Because gender is not something over which an individual person has absolute control given the role institutions play in maintaining gender divisions, the text approaches social change as something in which all must participate
