by Karen Vintges (Author)
This book proposes a new way to look at the relationship between women's rights and multiculturalism. Drawing on notions of Beauvoir, as well as Michel Foucault, this book outlines a 'feminism in a new key' which consists of women's various freedom practices, each hunting the Hydra in their own key - but with mutual support.
