The second wave of feminism which challenged and changed many
assumptions about the world in which we live was a product of
various western cultures, with no single country possessing a
monopoly on the writing of the texts that became the canonical
statements of the 'new' feminism. Though many of the contributions
to feminist scholarship that went on to become internationally
significant hailed from Europe and the United States, these works
were often formed within the context of local debates and framed
within traditions of feminism and other political engagements
specific to these nations.A Transatlantic Conversations explores
the differences yielded by such conditions and their consequences
for the meaning of feminism. Examining the meaning and implications
of the different ways in which various shared categories have been
treated on both sides of the Atlantic, this volume both analyses
differences within feminism and provides a framework for the wider
discussion of what is sometimes assumed to be the homogeneity of
The West.A With leading scholars from either side of the Atlantic
presenting brand new work, Transatlantic Conversations suggests
directions for future research which will be of interest to
scholars of feminism, gender studies, sociology, political science
and international relations, geography and cultural studies, as
well as anyone concerned with the ways in which the different
political and intellectual traditions of Europe and the US have
shaped current political and intellectual debates.
