The Routledge History of Feminism

The Routledge Global History of Feminism is a comprehensive account of world events, thought, practices, and constituencies in feminism across time and space, presenting the evolution of global feminism alongside feminism that has appeared regionally and nationally. It traces the complex history of feminism as an idea, a practice of everyday life, and a political undertaking across the globe and presents both macro- and micro-evidence of the wide-range and ever changing contours of feminism. In chapters informed by cutting edge scholarship, it examines feminist thought, social visions, and political activism, always focusing on historical issues of both continuity and change.
