Women, Politics and the Public Sphere is a socio-historical
analysis of the relationship between women, politics and the public
sphere. It looks at the fault-lines established in the eighteenth
century for later developments in social and political discourse
and considers the implications for the political representation of
women in the West and globally, highlighting how women public
intellectuals now reflect much more social and cultural diversity.
Covering the legacy of eighteenth-century intellectual groupings
which were dominated by women such as members of the 'bluestocking
circles' and other more radical intellectual and philosophical
thinkers, the book focuses on women such as Catherine Macaulay and
Mary Wollstonecraft. These individuals and groups which emerged in
the eighteenth century established 'intellectual spaces' for the
emergence of women public intellectuals in subsequent centuries. It
also examines women public intellectuals in the US including
Samantha Power, Anne-Marie Slaughter, Elizabeth Warren, Condoleezza
Rice, Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton and Sheryl Sandberg.
