The essays in Transitions, Environments, Translations explore the varied meanings of feminism in different political, cultural, and historical contexts.

What happens when feminist ideas are translated from one language, one political context, to another?Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
