In this book, the author draws on over a decade of first-hand
experience as an academic-activist and on interviews with women in
Malaysia's women's rights movement. Despite a considerable array of
challenges to their participation in the public and political
spheres, the movement is especially vibrant. Presenting insights
from feminist activists in Malaysia, the book explores the Women's
Candidacy Initiative's efforts to promote independent women in
Parliament; the work of women's coalition the Joint Action Group
for Gender Equality; how activists understand and experience the
concept of feminism; and finally the place of men in feminism.
Women's Activism in Malaysia will be of interest to students and
scholars across a range of disciplines including gender studies,
politics and sociology.
