Book review: The women's movement in protest, institutions and the internet: Australia in transnational perspective

"The Women’s Movement in Protest, Institutions and the Internet: Australia in Transnational Perspective." Sarah Maddison and Marian Sawer (eds.). Routledge. July 2013. --- The death of feminism is regularly proclaimed in the West. Yet at the same time feminism has never had such an extensive presence, whether in international norms and institutions, or online in blogs and social networking campaigns. This book argues that the women’s movement is not over; but rather social movement theory has led us to look in the wrong places. Elizabeth Evans finds that this is essential reading for those interested in finding out more about the dynamic and varied nature of the Australian women’s movement.
