Material type: TextPublisher: London : Verso, 2018Description: 96 pages : illustrations (colour) ; 16 cmContent type: text | still image Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9781788731577 (hbk.) :Subject(s): Feminist theory | Society | SocietyDDC classification: 305.4'2 Summary: Xenofeminism is not a bid for revolution, but a wager on the long game of history, demanding imagination, dexterity and persistence. Xenofeminism seeks to construct a coalitional politics, a politics without the infection of purity. Is xenofeminism a programme? Not if this means anything so crude as a recipe, or a single-purpose tool by which a determinate problem is solved. Xenofeminism is a platform, an incipient ambition to construct a new language for sexual politics - a language that seizes its own methods as materials to be reworked, and incrementally bootstraps itself into existence. Xenofeminism is a politics for alienation.Item type | Current library | Home library | Shelving location | Class number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item reservations | |
