520    "This book aims to contribute to the discourse on women 
       and politics in Southeast Asia. The chapters, covering 
       Indonesia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Timor-Leste and 
       Singapore, analyse the asymmetrical power relationships 
       between the sexes and how power differentials between men 
       and women play out in the realm of politics are a 
       reflection of the power contestations women face with men 
       in other spheres of everyday life. Each chapter seeks to 
       ask a different question in terms of where women viz. men 
       stand in the political landscape of their countries, in an
       effort to answer the question of "Where are the women" in 
       the gender trope in Asian politics. While the chapters are
       primarily empirical as they delve into the challenges, 
       contradictions and conflicts Southeast Asian women 
       encounter, the main assertion is that women's struggles in
       the realm of politics are a result of having to operate 
       within power structures created principally by men, 
       thereby producing barriers for women to enter politics, on
       the one hand, and to increase their numbers and widen 
       their sphere of influence, on the other. Recognizing that 
       Asian politics is dominated by men, the question of how 
       women have negotiated a value system that is inherently 
       male-centred and male-controlled is also discussed. The 
       implicit narrative demonstrated in this book is that the 
       political arena should not be considered in isolation from
       other arenas but instead is essentially a mirror of other 
       arenas - whether the home, workplace, nation, and/or 
       global spaces -each marked by power contestations between 
       men and women and having a spill-over effect on the other,
       as well as shaping women's experiences in the political 
       realm"--|cProvided by publisher.
