First sentence: We decided to title this book (Un)thinking Citizenship: Feminist Debates in Contemporary South Africa on the grounds of what Corlann Gee Bush (1983, p.152) has argued, that the great strength of the women's movement (and of feminism) is the 'twin abilities to unthink the sources of oppression and to use this analysis to create a new synthesizing vision'.
