Feminist Alliances (Value Inquiry Book Series 175) (Value Inquiry Book Series)

This book is about feminism, its critics, and its possible directions for change. The nine chapters raise questions about theories of sexual difference, power, justice and history. A central theme concerns the prospects for combining feminist with other, non-feminist, political perspectives. The complexities of coalition / Iris Marion Young Whose politics? Who's correct? / Alison M. Jaggar Speaking of feminism...what are we arguing about? / Chris Beasley The purposes of politics: a feminist inquiry / Janna Thompson Foucault, feminism, and history / Lisa Featherstone Emasculating metaphor: whither the maleness of reason? / Jacqui Broad, Karen Green, Helen Prosser Care ethics, power and feminist socianalysis / Susan Duggin, Jason Pudsey Pornography and power / Narelle Lydeamore Splitting the difference: between Young and Fraser on identity politics / Marguerite La Caze. One audacity of Neoconservatives is their appropriation of the radical egalitarian rhetoric of the 1960s.
