In "Global Democracy, Social Movements, and Feminism" Catherine
Eschle examines the relationship between social movements and
democracy in social and political thought in the context of debates
about the exclusions and mobilizations generated by gender
hierarchies and the impact of globalization. Eschle considers a
range of approaches in social and political thought, from
long-standing liberal, republican, Marxist and anarchist
traditions, through post-Marxist and post-modernist innovations and
recent efforts to theorize democracy and social movements at a
global level. The author turns to feminist theory and movement
practices--and particularly to black and third world feminist
interventions--in debates about the democratization of feminism
itself. Eschle discusses the ways in which such debates are
increasingly played out on a global scale as feminists grapple with
the implication of globalization for movement organization. The
author then concludes with a discussion of the relevance of these
feminist debates for the theorization of democracy more generally
in an era of global transformation.
