- Description
- In this No-Nonsense Guide, van der Gaag offers a status report on the women of the world by examining issues like health, poverty, politics, law, education, the environment, violence, and sexuality. And although we are not yet living in a 'post-feminist' world and change is slow in coming, it is coming. But it is easy to forget just how recently so many women's rights have been won: and how many women still face violations of their rights on a daily basis.

- In dit boek beschrijft Clare Wesselius het leven van haar tante Clasina Maria (Claasje) Eggink (1890-1982) tegen de achtergrond van de internationale politieke en maatschappelijke ontwikkelingen van de twintigste eeuw. Claasje Eggink werd in haar jonge jaren door een vriendin meegenomen naar een demonstratie voor vrouwenkiesrecht, ze raakte actief betrokken bij een Sociaal-Anarchistische partij en bij de Communistische Partij, waar ze te maken had met dichteres Henriette Roland Holst, historica Annie Romein, politicus Jacques de Kadt, journalist Sal Tas, haar vriendin Josine Meyer en vele anderen. Vanwege haar kritische houding wordt ze uit de communistische partij ook weer geroyeerd. In het crisisjaar 1929 emigreert ze met haar man naar de Verenigde Staten, vanwaar ze familie en vrienden brieven schrijft over hun belevenissen, haar ideeën en haar herinneringen.
