Margaret Walters did a B.Litt at Oxford, went on to lecture in English at Reading University for 20 years, and is now a freelance writer and reviewer: she is currently working on a book entitled Femme Fatale for Cape, and she reviews for the TLS and the Sunday Times.
This is an historical account of feminism, looking at the roots of feminism, voting rights, the liberation of the sixties, and analysing the current situation of women, across Europe and the United States, and elsewhere in the world (in particular in Third World countries). Walters examines the difficulties and inequities that women still face, more than forty years after the 'new wave' of 1960s feminism -- difficulties, particularly, in combining domesticity, motherhood and work outside the house. How much have women's lives really changed? In the West women still come up against the 'glass ceiling' at work, most earning considerably less than their male counterparts. What are we to make of the now commonplace insistence that feminism deprives men of their rights and dignities? And how does one tackle the issue of female emancipation in different cultural and economic environments - in, for example, Islam, Hinduism, the Middle East, Africa, and the Indian sub-continent?

評分圖書標籤: feminism 女性主義 VSI 英文原版 牛津通識 性彆研究 女性 社會學
On the one hand, a playground for extremists – she termed them ‘fundamentalists’... On the other hand, she argued, feminism has become ‘institutionalized’, and she compared it to communism: it demands commitment, not simply to ideas, but to a generalized ideology. Moreover, she added, it is nowadays just another academic subject.

評分果然是Very Short Introduction,不過想瞭解the Feminism of the West, Middle class, and White women倒還是可以一讀的。
評分牛津通識讀本第一彈,故事我都看得懂,人名就很糊塗,想要進一步閱讀。
評分深度不夠,理論性不強,更像英美女權主義史。文辭較平庸,多有重復。英美中心,最後一章短暫提到“第三世界女性主義”,浮光掠影。
