About this product

Product Information

'In The Global Women's Movement, Antrobus gives us rich historical background, insightful personal reflection, and a keen analysis of the challenges that lie ahead for women's global organizing. This is a must read for all activists, policy makers and scholars who care about the future of equity and justice in the world.'Charlotte Bunch, Rutgers University'This reflection on the international women's movement by one of its most important leaders is both timely and stimulating. Locating its origins in the quest for broader social justice, Peggy Antrobus examines this movement over three decades. She makes the case that if our movement is to continue to find solutions to the problems of human security and well-being, we must deal as seriously with issues of race and class as we do with patriarchy.'Noeleen Heyzer, UNIFEM'This is a fascinating book where the researcher and the activist come together to tell the history of a revolutionary movement that changed the way we think about gender and sexuality, social justice and human rights, the political economy and power. The author has the authority of someone who was an active participant in many major events of that history.'Carmen Barroso, Western Hemisphere Region'This is a breath-taking attempt at documenting the challenges and triumphs of the Global Women's Movement over the past 30 years, and there are few women in this movement more qualified than Peggy Antrobus to take this on. Peggy brings her immense wealth of experience as a feminist activist, scholar, strategist, thinker and mentor to bear on this book, which is a great resource for women's rights activists everywhere.' Bisi Adeleye-Fayemi, Women's Rights in Development

Bisi Adeleye-Fayemi, Executive Director, African Women's Development Fund, and President, Association for Women's Rights in Development (AWID).'This book succinctly charts the journey women have made over the years to build on their issues as a global movement capable of promoting and penetrating democratic structures in society and the strategies they have deployed through the language of human rights in order to achieve this. It clarifies the agencies and the structures that have been developed and need further development in order for the process to continue.'- Dr Surinder Guru, University of Birmingham'This is a book for our times: a careful reflection on the growth of the global women's movement, the challenges it faces at this particular conjuncture in international politics and economy, and the possibilities for change now...accessibly written and likely to attract a wide readership. Its particular strength lies in its insider/participant observer perspective, and Antrobus' critical self-reflections...The book should appeal to any feminist engaged in or despairing of contemporary global politics.' - Jan Jindy Pettman, the International Journal of Politics'I would recommend this book to students of women's studies, political science, labor studies, global studies and the history of social movements as well as to those preparing to work with women in internationality...The depth of Antrobus' commitment to social justice, and in particular to the development of women and socio-economic equity within the Caribbean, resonates throughout.' - Patricia A.
