Focusing on the US, the former Soviet Union, and South and Southeast Asia, they argue that the interconnected histories of imperialism, socialism, and postcolonialism have converged in a new way since the fall of the Soviet Union, transforming the post-war international order that preceded it. Today, the ideal of the empowered woman – a striving, entrepreneurial subject who overcomes adversity and has many “choices” – symbolizes modernity for diverse countries competing for status in the global hierarchy. This ideal bridges the painful gap between aspiration and lived reality, but also spurs widespread discontent.  aWomen -- Political activity 9751730  aWomen's rights9582560  aNeoliberalism9725735  aSolari, Cinzia D. eCo-author9751731  2CCn0cTBhY15:3(S5) R3  c1308388d1308388  00102CC4070aRTLbRTLd2025-04-02l1oY15:3(S5) R3pRT1528445r2025-09-18 11:38:03s2025-09-01w2025-04-02yTB
