Reviews for The Women´s Liberation Movement: Impacts and Outcomes
This book is rich in content and thoroughly researched. Several chapters bring relatively un-known movement dynamics to an English-speaking audience for the first time. These contributions provide important empirical evidence of what the diversity of the many Western European Women's Liberation Movements actually stand for, what they do, and how they develop.
