Description: "The Historical Dictionary of Feminism: Second Edition is a resource for librarians, scholars, and students, with more than 1,000 entries covering significant people, organizations, campaigns, court cases, goals, achievements, and current and future directions of the feminist movement. Seventy-five percent of the entries are new or revised from the first edition, and the introduction, which provides an overview of the history and development of feminism as a movement and philosophy, is more internationally focused. This new edition also has an expanded chronology and updated bibliography that brings attention to many online resources and emphasizes global and third-wave feminism - both new developments since the publication of the first edition."--BOOK JACKET.
