Descrizione del libro

Sara Ahmed challenges the theorising which asks 'is/should feminism be modern or postmodern?' Rather than allow postmodernism to dictate feminist debates, she uses close reading to argue that feminism must itself ask questions of postmodernism and not position it as a generalisable condition of the world.
