As we arrive at the new millennium, the role of women in our society continues to be a topic of heated debate. Having deconstructed women's oppression and reclaimed women's culture, what does the future hold for postfeminism?
Introducing Postfeminism uses text and integrated illustration to trace the effect of French feminist theory on contemporary gender, politics and culture. The author and illustrator describe how postfeminist theories draw from a range of discourses including psychoanalysis, poststructuralism, postmodernism and postcolonialism to develop our understanding of the "feminine."
