- Summary
- This anthology points to the importance of strategic generalizations of gender. The women's movements are seen as forming a wide range of discoursive communities that have gradually unfolded at the global level during the 20th century. The volume invites readers to recognize the integrated nature of research, reflection, and contextualization and is a manifestation of the links between women's movements and gender studies as well as the struggle of coming to terms with new challenges and new interpretations.
