Book Summary
From religious orders to the military, schools to fetish clubs, uniforms shape
identities. What does it mean to wear one? Why do certain professions require
them? Why are uniforms so alluring when they inspire so many ambivalent
feelings? Craik debunks the myth that the meaning of uniforms is transparent.
From nurses to brides, from athletes to police officers, uniforms express
certain implicit (and sometimes explicit) codes about power, transgression,
eroticism and masquerade." Uniforms Exposed" investigates the social and
cultural significance of these ordinary yet extraordinary garments. Craik
demonstrates how uniforms go well beyond the standard definitions of order,
discipline, conformity, pride and authority. Their meaning, she argues, is
thoroughly
