Recenzii

A truly excellent book that constitutes essential reading for those who are trying to understand and grapple with the push and pull of radical movements and the work achieved by women who refuse to give in.
In a time when democracy is under threat, and unapologetic attack from numerous quarters, this timely volume, written by an amazing, diverse international group of critical feminist scholars and activists demonstrates clearly the costs of pervasive neoliberalism, nationalism, and conservatism. From indefensible refugee conditions, to untenable fiscal policy, to oppressive educational practices, or the hierarchical gaze of the ubiquitous panoption of those in power, the need to hear these voices and perspectives is more pressing than ever. The complexity of issues is addressed here with an appropriate and concomitant complexity of international feminist critique grounded in intersectionality presents powerful challenges to oppressive transnational policies and practices.
What better way to explore the responsibilities of feminism in the post-truth era than to locate feminism in the world? Intersectional, local, and global, this volume meets the politics of austerity and national identity with a feminist demand for equality. If, as post-democracy thinkers argue, democracy has been hollowed out, then maybe it is ripe for transformation.
This timely book advances a much needed transnational approach to critical feminist inquiry into the rise of far-right agendas for social organization: how the gendered reawakening of xenophobic, racist and patriotic/patriarchal ultra-nationalism converges with conservatism and neoliberalism, and how transnational feminist politics and emancipatory educational praxis might transform this disturbing scenario.
Like star constellations in the sky, I now cannot "not see" the intersections of gender oppression and neoliberalism, conservatism, and nationalism. I share an ideological global blanket of solidarity as we collectively battle for a more gender equal world.
