Description
Like feminism, utopias are intended to bring about shifts in consciousness by critiques of the status quo. In this brilliant collection of articles, authors examine feminist utopias, highlighting what they see as visionary, exciting and useful, as well as the pitfalls. By operating in the here and now, the articles included in the volume present alternative ways of thinking and a space for evoking social change.
