- Description
- Focusing on Germany and some German-speaking countries, this volume works to dismantle the prevailing disassociation of women and leadership. Contributions discuss literary works involving women's political authority and cultivation of community from Maria Antonia of Saxony to Elfriede Jelinek: women's social activism, as embodied by figures from Hedwig Dohm to Rosa Luxemburg and Bertha von Suttner: women in political film, environmentalism, neoliberalism, and the media from Leni Riefenstahl to Petra Kelly to Maren Ade: and political leaders Hillary Clinton and Angela Merkel.
