Summary: | Materialist Feminisms investigates the crucial theoretical and political debates that have determined the course of British and American feminism over the last thirty years. As intellectual terrain has shifted during these decades from Marxism to cultural materialism and poststructuralist literary theory, questions of race and ethnicity, sexuality, postcoloniality, and green politics have converged and sometimes collided with the categories of gender and class on feminist agendas. By exploring some wide-ranging theoretical interests, the authors not only introduce major controversies within feminism, but analyze many of the most important texts and movements of contemporary cultural theory. |
