Once seen as synonymous with "anti-feminism" postfeminism is now understood as the theoretical meeting ground between feminism and anti-foundationalist movements such as postmodernism, post-structuralism and post-colonialsm.
In this clear exposition of some of the major debates, theorists and practitioners, Ann Brooks shows how feminism is being redefined for the twenty first century. Individual chapters look at postfeminism in relation to feminist epistemology, Foucault, psychoanalytic theory and semiology, postmodernism and postcolonialism, cultural politics, popular culture, film and media, and sexuality and identity. For all students looking for guidance through the sometimes murky waters of contemporary feminist theory, this book will provide a reassuring first port of call.
Industry Reviews
"If you are looking for a text that identifies some of the postmodern feminists' scholarship in the area of cultural studies, "Postfeminisms: Feminism, Cultural Theory and Cultural Forms could provide your students with an entry point into these debates." -"Canadian Journal of Communication
