Subjects
Feminism -- Analysis, Writers -- Criticism and interpretation, Jewish studies -- Analysis, Women's studies -- Analysis, Ethnic, cultural, racial issues/studies, Philosophy and religion, Women's issues/gender studies
Abstract

Shulamit Reinharz's early work holds an important place in gender and women's studies scholarship and is inseparable from her work as a teacher, mentor and scholar in the field of Jewish Studies. This essay explores how some of the theoretical and methodological concerns of the initial sociological and feminist critiques of the social sciences (to which Shula was an early and discerning contributor) have slowly made their way into Jewish Studies scholarship., For some of us, Shulamit Reinharz's On Becoming a Social Scientist (1) has become a classic in the field of sociology and of the social sciences in general. In this [...]

25. Women in Science: Reappraising Explanations for Their Achievement.

Author

Kaufman, Debra Renee

Abstract

Factors pertinent to females in American science and mathematics-related disciplines are examined, focusing on explanations for the poorer representation of females, their lower rank, and their seemingly poorer productivity once within the professions. Using a multidisciplinary approach, some of the usual explanations for their poorer showing are reexamined, suggesting that ability, personality traits, and early sex-role socialization are hardly a match for the real world constraints and barriers women face in the educational and occupational sphere. A conclusion is drawn suggesting that the social processes involved in becoming a professional scientist are better explanatory variables than individual factors in explaining women's achievements.

44. Renaming violence

Author

Kaufman, Debra Renee

Subjects
Holocaust, 1933-1945 -- Social aspects, Women -- Crimes against, Violence -- Social aspects, Psychology and mental health, Social sciences
Abstract

A gender analysis forces us to measure and define our sociological inquiries in ways that broaden categories of human experiences. In so doing, we are often forced to rename those experiences. In this analysis of violence, gender, and the Holocaust, we will look to the extra burden, in addition to race, that gender forced on women: rape, abortion, sexual victimization, pregnancy, childbirth, the killing of newborns, and decisions about separation from children. In this analysis, we will look to the ways in which gender forces us to revisit the meaning of violence through the sins of omission as well as commission, through a deepening of the understanding of public and private spheres of life, and to expand what we mean by victims, survivors, and resisters.
