Description

Gender relations are in a period of transition. In this collection, some of Australia's leading writers and talented young scholars offer a systematic overview of the ways in which recent feminist analysis is shaping women's studies.

They reflect on questions of power, difference, social structures, methodology and culture.

They ask how feminism has changed in the past few years, and whether concepts like 'patriarchy' and 'oppression' are still relevant. Contributors include: Ien Ang, Julie Ewington, Jill Matthews, Susan Sheridan, Sophie Watson and Anna Yeatman. 'All the liveliest feminist debates - postmodernist, deconstructionist, post-Marxist - are represented here.

The scope is broad and the subject matter multidisciplinary.

This book is new Australian feminism at its newest and best.' - Michele Barrett, Professor of Sociology, City University, London
