About this ebook:
Miksi lihavuudesta on tullut yksi leimaavimmista ruumiin ominaisuuksista länsimaisessa yhteiskunnassa? Mitä mainokset kertovat kulttuurisista kauneusihanteista? Miltä tuntuu elää nykynaisena ruumisnormien ristipaineissa ja miten paineiden läpi voisi luovia? Miksi ruumiin normista poikkeavaan ulkomuotoon liitetään oletus ihmisen henkisistä ja moraalisista heikkouksista?Koolla on väliä! on ensimmäinen yleistajuinen, suomalaiseen tutkimukseen perustuva kokoelma. Se on yhdistelmä yhteiskuntatieteellistä ja humanistista tutkimusta ripauksella feminististä otetta.Teoksen kirjoittajat pohtivat lihavuuteen liittyviä kulttuurisia, sosiaalisia, psyykkisiä ja kokemuksellisia kysymyksiä. Artikkeleissa ruumiin koon merkityksiä tarkastellaan muun muassa lihavien naisten kokemusten, anoreksiakokemusten, televisiomainosten, lihavuuden uhkakuvia luovien sanomalehtijuttujen, laihdutuskertomusten ja kaunokirjallisuuden avulla.FM, mediatutkija Katariina Kyrölä valmistelee väitöskirjaa lihavan ruumiin katsomisen ja esittämisen tavoista nykymediassa.
