520 |a This study provides an overview of the genesis, growth, gains and dilemmas of women's movements world-wide. Focusing on the post-colonial states of Asia, Africa and Latin America, the book challenges the assumptions that feminism can transcend national difference and, conversely, that women's movements are shaped and circumscribed by national levels of development. The contributors reject the notion, proposed by its detractors and champions alike, that feminism is western-inspired and of middle-class origins. Instead they seek to locate women's movements within the context from which they emerge.
