Description
Feminisms: A Global History by Lucy Delap offers a fresh perspective on the ongoing story of feminism. Historian Lucy Delap challenges traditional narratives of 'feminist waves' to reveal that feminists have been driven by specific concerns of their historical moment. This absorbing book explores different feminist projects from around the world, including Japan, Russia, Egypt and Germany, highlighting the diversity of perspectives within the movement. By examining these diverse histories, Delap argues that a rich relationship to the past can inform today's activism with new possibilities and inspiration. A comprehensive and engaging history of feminism, Feminisms is an essential read for anyone looking to understand the complexities of this ongoing social transformation.
