Feminisms

By Sandra Kemp & Judith Squires

Synopsis

'an anthology which will no doubt influence scholarship for years to come' Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Columbia University
The editors 'a very impressive collection have come up with a remarkably thorough cross-section of texts from an intellectual stand-point, and have also managed to choose essays that are readable and exciting. The section on Technologies is especially original, provocative, and forward looking. Even a jaded old 70s "femocrat" like myself would enjoy teaching the book in a wide variety of courses on feminist
theory and contemporary thought.' Elaine Showalter, Princeton University
... a comprehensive, ambitious and brilliantly thought-out collection The conceptual framework is innovative and subtle: it introduces the material without falling prey to easy catego-rizations or ready-made labels. Respectful of the diversity of positions that co-exist within femi-nism, the Reader also reflects the feminist com-mitment to the politics of experience and to the empowerment of women. This Reader is the ideal companion for anyone who is engaged in research or reflection on contemporary feminism.'
Rosi Braidotti, Utrecht University
"This rich and comprehensive collection of diverse and challenging essays introduces its readers to all the shifting topics, controversies and conflicts at the cutting edge of feminist scholarship since 1980-insights enough to inspire even the most sceptical of feminists.'
Lynne Segal, Middlesex University
