Produktbeschreibung

First Published in 1993. This is a wide-ranging collection of essays bringing together contributions which address key issues and debates in contemporary women's studies and feminism. The variety of feminist identities and perspectives which emerge from these pages reveals the extent to which the diversities of women's experiences continue to reshape feminist knowledge and politics. A recurrent theme is how to work with our diversities, and to make connections which do not recreate hierarchies or oppressive practices privileging the experiences and aims of some women over those of others. Making Connections is an important contribution to ongoing feminist debates.
