The 'minority' feminist viewpoints have often been submerged in the
interests of maintaining a mainstream, universal model of feminism.
This anthology takes into account the various differences among
women while looking at the important areas of feminist struggle.
While sisterhood is indeed global, it certainly does not mean that
all women are required to submerge their specific differences and
assimilate to a universal model. Consequently, the collection
includes essays by leaders in the field of post-structuralist
enquiry as well as by those immersed in the new spirituality, and
the social consequences of recent biological research. Other essays
reflect the political struggles which continue to be waged with
different strategies by socialist and radical feminists, and the
self-searching analyses undertaken by feminists uneasy about their
inclusion within educational institutions and the radical new
interpretations of sexuality within the cultural domain. The
collection begins with a critique of white mainstream feminism
emanating from Aboriginal women in Australia. The implications of
the critique indicate that there is a pervasive racism within the
feminist movement.
