Intersectional Feminism in the Age of Transnationalism: Voices from the Margins studies the limitations of the transnationalist approach to feminism and argues that intersectional feminist analysis is essential in discussions of how neoliberal globalization impacts art by female artists and the rights of women from marginalized communities.
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 and chair of the Department of Foreign Languages and Literature at Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville. Raysa E. Amador is professor and chair of the Department of Languages, Literatures, and Cultures at Adelphi University in New York.
