Radically Speaking: Feminism Reclaimed

Author(s): Diane Bell

Literary Studies

Since the late 60's radical feminists have laboured to articulate a vision of the world in which all women would be safe, and all women acknowledged as human beings in their own right. Their projects included establishing women's refuges, rape crisis centres, health centres, organizing against pornography and developing courses in Women's Studies. Their practice and the theory of radical feminism is often misrepresented or unknown. This book features 70 writers from every continent discussing their ideas and practice of contemporary feminism.
