September 11, 2001 : Feminist Perspectives

After September 11, feminists around the world spoke out, wrote for newspapers, for email lists and for the Internet.

But in the male-dominated mass media, it was hard to find feminist perspectives.

This collection brings together women who discuss the connections between war, terrorism, fundamentalism, racism, global capitalism and male violence.

From the USA to Afghanistan, from Pakistan to Palestine, from Australia to Europe they have deconstructed this story and retold it from a feminist perspective in a powerful indictment of current global politics.

Contributors include Barbara Kingsolver and Ani DiFranco, Naomi Klein.
