It asks does ‘feminism’ exist? Or are the differences among feminist today so great that we should speak of ‘feminisms’? The book looks at the challenge made by feminists to prevailing ideas about a ‘woman’s place’, the complex relationship between equality and difference, women’s solidarity and the relationship between feminism and other social and political reform movements. Provides political and cultural context on the evolution of feminism  Discusses and evolves arguments that have been raging for over two centuries A wide geographical approach gives a truly global picture of how feminism is understood and experienced
