Summary This collection of translated essays, lectures, and dialogues allows English-speaking readers to access the breadth of Antoinette Fouque's creativity and activism. Touching on issues in history and biography, politics and psychoanalysis, she recounts her experiences running the first women's publishing house in Europe; supporting women such as Aung San Suu Kyi; and serving as deputy in the European Parliament. Her theoretical explorations discuss the ongoing development of feminology, a field she initiated, and, while she celebrates the progress women have made over the past four decades, she also warns against the trends of counterliberation: the feminisation of poverty, the persistence of sexual violence, and the rise of religious fundamentalism.
