Death, Gender and Ethnicity examines the ways in which gender and ethnicity shape the experiences of dying and bereavement, taking as its focus the diversity of modes through which the universal event of death is encountered. As well as offering an extensive critical review of existing work on death, gender and ethnicity, the book addresses such topics as: stillbirth gendered parental bereavement through the death of a child gendered social construction of mourning and grief disruption of gender stereotypes at the time of death media treatment of the violent deaths of young women provision of palliative care issues of disposal with which the members of ethnic minorities are faced. Finally it asks about the value of a postmodern approach to the diversity and indeed fragmentation of human experience which currently constitutes death and dying. Drawing on a range of detailed case studies Death, Gender and Ethnicity seeks to develop a more sensitive theoretical approach which may not only inform future studies in this area but potentiate a revisioning of some classic material.
