"The Routledge Critical Dictionary of Feminism and Postfeminism is designed to be the widest-ranging paperback reference guide on feminism ever published. This resource follows the unique Critical Dictionary format in combining over a dozen essays with more than 400 A-Z dictionary entries. In-depth background essays trace the development of feminist thought and outline its influence on various aspects of contemporary culture, such as technology, religion, literature, and film. The dictionary entries cover the major individuals and issues essential to our understanding both of feminism's roots and the trends that are shaping its future."--BOOK JACKET |
