Essential reading for all students and academics seeking a thorough and wide-ranging understanding of postfeminism This text comprehensively surveys and critically positions the main issues, theories and contemporary debates surrounding postfeminism. It covers the term's underpinnings and critical contexts, its different meanings, as well as popular media representations. New for this edition is the extended critical history of postfeminism, the engagement with a new postfeminist vocabulary associated with post-recession, and the close analysis of the impact of a recessionary postfeminist stance.
