ISBN: 0415111099 ISBN-13: 9780415111096 Publisher: Routledge OUR PRICE: $75.99 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: December 1995 Annotation: In "Practising Feminism," contributors are drawn from a range of backgrounds in anthropology, sociology and social psychology to explore different ways of practising feminism and the effect these practices have on gendered identities. The contributors explore feminism and gender differences between different countries and diverse feminist practices. They also discuss the need for the recognition of heterosexuality as a politicized identity, the practical role of feminism in nationalist struggles and the methodological implications of feminist practices. "Practising Feminism" is an important contribution to the neglected middle ground between post-modern deconstructions of difference and identity and continued feminist concern with grounded power relations and the validity of experience. |
