ABOUT THE BOOK: Feminism refers to a diverse variety of beliefs, ideas, movements, and agendas for action. Here is what I find to be the core similarities among those using the term for their own beliefs, ideas, movements and agendas for action. Feminism is a multi-disciplinary approach to sex and gender equality understood through social theories and political activism. Historically, feminism has evolved from the critical examination of inequality between the sexes to a more nuanced focus on the social and performative constructions of gender and sexuality. A few decades ago, women did not have the opportunities available to today’s modern woman. This was not because the women back then were less intelligent, or less industrious, or less ambitious. It was simply because as a woman, your choices were very limited. The book will suit to the needs of students, teachers, scholars and general readers.
