A groundbreaking contribution to debates on women's oppression and consciousness, and the connections between socialism and feminism.
A groundbreaking contribution to debates on women's oppression and consciousness, and the connections between socialism and feminism. Examining feminist consciousness from various vantage points - social, sexual, cultural and economic - Sheila Rowbotham identifies the social conditions under which it developed, showing how the roles women take on within the capitalist economy have shaped ideas about family and sexuality.
Reviews
Rowbotham is one of Britain's most important, if unshowy, feminist thinkers, and a key figure of the second wave.
Sheila's early writing paved the way for feminist thought and scholarship in Britain.
