Understanding Feminism

Publisher Max Milo
No one's born a feminist; you become one. A work about those who have become feminists that avoids the best-known names.

Male/Female: hardly an obvious dichotomy. The feminist "we" is far from self-evident. Its definition changes with schools and ideologies. A struggle against male domination, feminism can also defend different expressions of gender and sexuality. By examining the ideas put forward by various feminist trends and their place in the societal landscape, Bourcier and Moliner lay out a road map for greater unity if feminism is to remain a historically productive movement. Understanding feminism means inhabiting it: its changes, situations, and debates.
