Feminist activism is often taught as an historical phenomenon, and
many students entering courses on women's studies are not familiar
with current feminist work in the field. This book documents a wide
variety of different forms of feminist activism in the 1990s, from
organisations such as "Rights for Women" and "Southall Black
Sisters" to "Asian Women's Work in Refuges". It raises questions
about the meaning of "feminist activism" and its interpretation
within women's studies and other academic disciplines. The chapters
suggest, against much current representation within women's studies
and elsewhere, that feminism is still alive. With a comprehensive
introduction providing an historical overview of the development of
feminist activism from "second wave" feminism onwards, this text is
intended to be of use as a resource for all students of women's
studies and related courses.
