Intersectional Feminism in the Age of Transnationalism
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-7936-1943-3 (ISBN)
Intersectional Feminism in the Age of Transnationalism: Voices from the Margins explores the limitations of the transnationalist approach to feminism and questions the neoliberal emphasis on individual freedom and consumer choice as the central goals of feminist activism. The contributions to the volume discuss such varied topics as fiction by Edwidge Dandicat, Judith Ortiz-Cofer, and Diamela Eltit; visual art of Laura Aguilar and Maruja Mallo; films directed by Lucrecia Martel; a TV series based on a novel by María Dueñas; the art-activism of Ani Ganzala and Zinha Franco; and the philosophical thought of Gloria Anzaldúa. All chapters proceed from the belief in the continued usefulness of intersectionality as a valuable category of critical analysis that is particularly necessary at the time when the effects of neoliberal globalization are undermining many familiar categories of critical inquiry.
Olga Bezhanova is associate professor of Spanish literature and chair of the Department of Foreign Languages and Literature at Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville. Raysa E. Amador is professor of languages and literature at Adelphi University in New York.
