Women's Activism and "Second Wave" Feminism situates late 20th-century feminisms within a global framework of women's activism. Its chapters, written by leading international scholars, demonstrate how issues of heterogeneity, transnationalism, and intersectionality have transformed understandings of historical feminism.

It is no longer possible to imagine that feminism has ever fostered an unproblematic sisterhood among women blind to race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, nationality and citizenship status. The chapters in this collection modify the "wave" metaphor in some cases and in others re-periodize it. By studying individual movements, they collectively address several themes that advance our understandings of the history of feminism, such as the rejection of "hegemonic" feminism by marginalized feminist groups, transnational linkages among women's organizations, transnational flows of ideas and transnational migration. By analyzing practical activism, the chapters in this volume produce new ways of theorizing feminism and new historical perspectives about the activist locations from which feminist politics emerged.

Including histories of feminisms in the United States, Canada, South Africa, India, France, Russia, Japan, Korea, Poland and Chile, Women's Activism and "Second Wave" Feminism provides a truly global re-appraisal of women's movements in the late 20th century.

Описание: Lea David goes against the well-embedded belief that `proper` remembrance leads to a better appreciation of human rights values, helping us to understand how the human rights memorialization agenda developed globally and why it often ends up strengthening nationalist sentiment and shaping social inequalities on the ground.

Описание: This book traces Radovan Karadzic`s transformation from an unremarkable family man to the leader of the Bosnian Serb nationalists. Based on previously unused documents and trial transcripts, it argues that postcommunist democracy enabled mass atrocities because it provided the means to mobilize large numbers of Bosnian Serbs for the campaign to eliminate non-Serbs from conquered land.

Описание: A study of the unprecedented mobilization and transformation of conservative movements on both sides of the Atlantic during the 1960s and 1970s. Leading scholars chart how and why countless new political organizations emerged as a self-styled `silent majority` in defence of the existing order against a perceived left-wing threat.
