"At last! A critical look at feminist schisms that doesn't trash
either side. Chancer's analysis of the sexuality vs. sexism splits
is excellent and also makes for wonderful reading. I particularly
liked her ideas for a 'third wave' in feminism."--Judith Lorber,
CUNY Graduate Center
""Reconcilable Differences brings crucial new perspectives to
long-standing problems. Chancer's insights enrich our
understandings of gender inequality and the policies necessary to
address them."--Deborah Rhode, Stanford Law School
"In this postmodern world of fractured subjectivity and
incommensurabilities, Lynn Chancer boldly argues for the
possibility of feminist unity amidst and through our oft-noted
differences. A book of rare intelligence and broad applicability,
Chancer confronts the thorny debates that have kept feminists
fighting each other and unable to reconcile around even the
narrowest of agendas. She argues for the vitality of these debates
(around sex, around the culture of beauty and, most tempestuously,
around pornography) at the same time she pushes them to new places
and draws out both new dilemmas and new resolutions for the
late-twentieth century feminist. Clearly the work of a creative and
complex mind, Chancer's book is destined to become a *must read*
for feminists of all persuasions."--Suzanna Danuta Walters, author
of "Material Girls: making sense of feminist cultural theory
