"Drawing on more than two hundred interviews with women in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and the Mexican state of Chiapas, Karen Kampwirth tells the story of how the guerrilla wars led to the rise of feminism, why certain women became feminists, and what sorts of feminist movements they built. Feminism and the Legacy of Revolution explores how the violent politics of guerrilla struggle were related to the peaceful politics of feminism. It considers the gains, losses, and internal conflicts within revolutionary women's organizations." "Feminism and the Legacy of Revolution challenges old assumptions regarding revolutionary movements and the legacy of those movements for the politics of daily life. It will appeal to a broad, interdisciplinary audience in political science, sociology, anthropology, women's studies, and Latin American studies, as well as general readers with an interest in international feminism."--BOOK JACKET.
