Feminism Beside Itself

by Diane Elam (Editor), Robyn Wiegman (Editor)

In Feminism Beside Itself , several generations of academic feminists reflect on the history and identity of feminism. The first section articulates feminism's historical concerns by asking questions about feminism as a history. The second section explores more fully how feminism is in conflict with itself. Challenging the contention that a comprehensive or representative feminism is possible, these provocative essays confront the changing conceptions of feminism in the last decade of the twentieth century.
