Or of the social conditions that facilitate freedom? Combining theoretical and empirical perspectives, Carisa R. Showden investigates what exactly makes an agent and how that agency influences the ways women make inherently sensitive and difficult choices--specifically in instances of domestic violence, assisted reproduction, and sex work. In Showden's analysis, women's agency emerges as an individual and social construct, rooted in concrete experience, complex and changing over time. 000438479 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000438479 650_0 $$aWomen$$xIdentity. 000438479 650_0 $$aAutonomy (Psychology) 000438479 650_0 $$aFeminist theory. 000438479 650_0 $$aFamily violence. 000438479 650_0 $$aReproductive technology. 000438479 650_0 $$aProstitution. 000438479 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aShowden, Carisa Renae.$$tChoices women make.$$dMinneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2011$$z9780816655953$$z9780816655960$$w(DLC) 2010032602$$w(OCoLC)652448020 000438479 8520_ $$bacq 000438479 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000438479 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=784152$$zOnline Access 000438479 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:438479$$pGLOBAL_SET 000438479 980__ $$aEBOOK 000438479 980__ $$aBIB 000438479 982__ $$aEbook 000438479 983__ $$aOnline
