I started doing this roundup and then felt very sick. This is what I have.

 

I found two potentially very helpful articles and received the physical book that Professor Basaran recommended. I have more of a theoretical framework.

 

Cooper, Melinda. 2017. Family Values: Between Neoliberalism and the New Social            Conservatism. Cambridge, Massachusetts: Zone Books.

I think this book will be helpful in determining the political logic of neoliberalism as it relates gender to neoliberalism politically through the lens of the family. It could be good for me to draw out the political map as well as making the direct theoretical comparison between conservative gender norms and market ideas.

 

Ruddick, Sue. 2007. “At the Horizons of the Subject: Neo-liberalism, neo-conservatism,   and the rights of the child: Part one: From ‘knowing’ fetus to ‘confused’ child”.        Gender, Place & Culture 14 (5): 513-526.

This looks fine. When you feel better, make sure to complete this assignment though. I will grade all these components at the end of the semester.
