About this product
Product Information
This new edition of The Woman Question brings together the most influential analyses of womens position in society to have emerged in the past decade. The discussion encompasses both theoretical issues of identity and the economic and political status of women. It demonstrates the impact of gender not only on how the social world is organized but on how we understand and interpret that world. Recognizing the diversity of womens experiences, it pays particular attention to the interactions of race, class, gender and sexuality. Leading feminists explore the concept of gender difference, its impact on women and its representation in culture. They discuss the material realities of womens lives and how these are differentiated by race. They examine womens relation to powerful institutions, especially the state, and analyze the successes, failures and contradictions of feminist politics.
