Volume 12 consists of fourteen original essays by multi-national andmulti-disciplinary scholars. Four discuss and analyze the 19th Centurywritings of Harriet Martineau (British author), considered to be earlyexamples of sociology and gender studies. A range of Martineau's writings are explored including her critical review of the Salem witch huntsand her letters to a young Irishman. Severalessays focus on gendered implications of the state, for example, the European Union or the Eastern European Bloc. A third set focus on gender and social institutions and some investigate family-related issues including power relations regarding race, childbearing, the impact of religious fundamentalism, issues related to aging, health and medicine, and sport. Some are based on presentations givenat the International Sociological Association Congress in Durban, South Africa in July, 2006. Others are drawn from the Martineau Society Working Seminar at National University of Ireland at Maynoothin May, 2007. Continuing in the tradition established by the "Advances in Gender Research" series, it explores gender as a social institution and social construct. The essays complement one another in theirtopic examination, issues and themes, adding nuance to contemporary Gender Studies.
