    Popular Culture, Political Economy and the Death of Feminism

    Why women are in refrigerators and other stories

    'Why is it so hard to come out as a feminist? In this innovative deployment of feminist curiosity Penny Griffin links together the supposedly disparate realms of international political economy and popular culture, showing how they work hard to make "anti-feminism" the new normal.' - Terrell Carver, University of Bristol, UK 'Violence and male heroes are omnipresent in popular culture. In this innovative and important new book Penny Griffin reveals how they are part of much deeper entrenched and highly problematic gender stereotypes that shape both our identities and our politics.' - Roland Bleiker, Professor of International Relations, University of Queensland 'This is a book brimming with curiosity about the intricate connections between feminism, popular culture and IPE. Griffin has taken the time to weave an accessible and lively path between the ‘popular’ and the ‘academic’. Highly illuminating and energising.' - Professor Marysia Zalewski, School of Social Science, University of Aberdeen, Scotland
