Abstract "A classic resource on feminist theory, Feminist Thought offers a clear, comprehensive, and incisive introduction to the major traditions of feminist theory: from liberal feminism, radical feminism, and Marxist and socialist feminism, to women of color feminisms, care-focused feminism, psychoanalytic feminism, existentialist feminism, postmodern and poststructural feminism, and ecofeminism. The fifth edition has been thoroughly revised and includes a new chapter on third-wave and queer feminisms. In addition, the discussion of women-of-color feminisms is expanded into two chapters: women-of-color feminisms in the United States and women-of-color feminisms on the world stage."--Back cover.
