Produktbeschreibung

The Handbook of Transnational Feminist Movements explores the historical, political, and economic context in which transnational feminist movements have emerged and spread and the contributions these movements have made to global knowledge, policy and social change from the 1970s to the present. As it includes contributions from scholars and practitioners from around the globe (particularly from the Southern Hemisphere) the chapters consider the interplay between the lived experience of transnational feminist movements and the way that women's rights and gender equality have been theorized in different locations and contexts.
