"This timely, necessary collection of essays provides feminist analyses of a recession-era
media culture characterized by the reemergence and refashioning of familiar gender
tropes, including crisis masculinity, coping women, and postfeminist self-renewal.
Interpreting media forms as diverse as reality television, financial journalism, novels,
lifestyle blogs, popular cinema, and advertising, the contributors reveal gendered
narratives that recur across media forms too often considered in isolation from one
another. They also show how, with a few notable exceptions, recession-era popular
culture promotes affective normalcy and transformative individual enterprise under
duress while avoiding meaningful critique of the privileged white male or the destructive
aspects of Western capitalism. By acknowledging the contradictions between political
rhetoric and popular culture, and between diverse screen fantasies and lived realities,
Gendering the Recession helps to make sense of our postboom cultural moment."--back
