Publisher Description: This wide-ranging book responds to and moves beyond recent debates about the relationship between feminism and politics to offer a vision for the future of feminist theory. Leading figures have combined to offer a broad framework through which to articulate a new democracy′ - one that transgresses the traditional oppositions of equality and difference, sex and gender, essential and constructed, to view the political′ as complex, layered and relational. Issues addressed include: gender, ethnicity, culture and sexual orientation, always embracing the multiple terrains and spaces produced by politics. |
