- Description
- The essays in this volume examine some of the new issues that have arisen in French society in the last twenty years of the 20th century. In general these essays reflect the shift from the literary and psychoanalytic approaches that characterized French feminism in the 1970s, to the more social and political questions of today. Some of the topics include the 'parity' and 'PACS' debates (Pacte Civil de Solidarité, formerly known as Contrat d'Union Sociale, or Contrat d'Union Civile), the France-USA exchanges, the issue of 'multiculturalism', the new historical approaches, and the most recent trends in literature and film by women, among others.

- Description
- This collection of essays examines the relationship between women's movements and states in West Europe and North America, as states have relocated their formal powers and policy-making responsibilities. Since the 1980s, North American and West European states have reduced the scope and volume of their national responsibilities, increasingly employing neoliberal free market rhetoric, and developed transnational economic and political authorities. Simultaneously, second-wave women's movements have been transformed. Movements that were revolutionary in rhetoric, autonomous from states, and largely informally organized in the 1970s are, by the 1990s, employing moderate neoliberal rhetoric, entering state institutions as active participants, and creating more formal organizations. Contributors examine how movements have influenced the reconfiguration of nation-states and how these changes have influenced the goals, mobilization, tactics, success, and rhetoric of women's movements in various West European and North American countries. This volume contributes theoretical insights and empirical evidence to the growing literature on states and movements.
