Routledge Companion to Feminism and Post Feminisim
Gamble, Sarah (Ed.)
Routledge Companion to Feminism and Post Feminisim - New York: Routledge, ©2001, 2025 (R) - xii, 370p.
Feminism has had a radical impact on today's world. But now the very future of feminism is under attack. The ideas of the feminists of the 1960s and 1970s are being questioned and redefined by a younger generation of 'postfeminists'. The Routledge Companion to Feminism and Postfeminism is the perfect guidebook for finding one's way around what has become an increasingly complex subject.
Over a dozen in-depth background chapters with more than 400 A-Z dictionary entries. The background chapters are written by major figures in the field of feminist studies, and include thorough coverage of the history of feminism, as well as extensive discussions of topics such as Postfeminism, Men in Feminism, Feminism and New Technologies and Feminism and Philosophy. The dictionary entries cover the major individuals and issues essential to an understanding both of feminism's roots and of the trends that are shaping its future. Readers will find entries on people such as Aphra Behn, Simone de Beauvoir, Princess Diana, Courtney Love and Robert Bly, and on subjects such as Afro-American feminism, cosmetic surgery, the 'new man', prostitution, reproductive technologies and 'slasher' films.
