Third wave feminism

Sinopse

"This collection explores the current period in feminism, known by many as the 'third wave'. Four sections - genealogies, sex and gender, popular culture, challenges - interrogate the wave metaphor and, through questioning the generational account of feminism, move feminist theory out from its present cul-de-sac. Contributions - from key and innovative third wave theorists, transgenderists, cybertheorists and cultural specialists as well as materialist and second wave feminists - introduce key debates and issues facing feminism, deepen our understanding of feminist theory and practice, and indicate future trajectories for the feminist movement."--BOOK JACKET.
