Who's afraid of feminism?

the long version

The progress in women's rights brought about by the feminist activism of the 1960s through the early 1980s is today confronted with a major political backlash. For Who's Afraid of Feminism?, editors Ann Oakley and Juliet Mitchell have commissioned new work by Carol Gilligan, Carolyn Heilbrun, and a distinguished, international group of feminist thinkers to explore the diverse territories that feminist thought and activism have affected over recent years, and the new questions that have arisen during that process.
