Leading feminist researchers consider the implications of contemporary feminism for sociological theory in this volume, which focuses on the feminist critique and re-evaluation of existing theories, new concepts and areas of research, and interdisciplinary links. Contributors highlight the important feminist theoretical work which has remained sociological theory, and argue for its inclusion into the mainstream. The text has been designed for both students and academics of sociological theory and women's studies.
