Bose discusses how global intersectional projects have focused both on particular groups and on interactions between dimensions and demonstrates how systems generate intersectional effects. Here, she provides examples of international nongovernmental organizations that try to develop policies that deal with complex, multi institutional interactions, policies that reflect gendered inequalities as shaped by a range of different economic, social, sexual, and cultural hierarchies. Understanding inequalities among diverse individuals requires attending not only to intersectional axes of age, race, ethnicity, class, marital status, sexual orientation, religion, and other characteristics but also to intersectional axes of transnational, regional, and national structures. As Bose argues, these approaches break new ground in intersectional approaches yet are based on Patricia Hill Collins’s crucial framework.
