Summary "This collection explores the current period in feminism, known by many as the 'third wave'. Four sections - genealogies, sex and gender, popular culture, challenges - interrogate the wave metaphor and, through questioning the generational account of feminism, move feminist theory out from its present cul-de-sac. Contributions - from key and innovative third wave theorists, transgenderists, cybertheorists and cultural specialists as well as materialist and second wave feminists - introduce key debates and issues facing feminism, deepen our understanding of feminist theory and practice, and indicate future trajectories for the feminist movement."--BOOK JACKET
Notes " ... emerges from a conference held at the University of Exeter in the Summer of 2002. Organised ... for the Institute for Feminist Theory and Research, this was the third conference in the Institute's series."--p. viii
