Voicing Demands

Voicing Demands is a collection of analytical narratives of what has happened to feminist voice, a key pathway to women’s empowerment. These narratives depart from the existing debate on women’s political engagement in formal institutions to examine feminist activism for building and sustaining constituencies through raising, negotiating and legitimizing women’s voice under different contexts.

Bringing together the reflections and experiences of feminist researchers and activists in South Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America, this unique volume explores how various global trends, such as the development of transnational linkages, the rise of conservative forces, the NGOization of feminist movements, and an increase in the power of donors, have created opportunities and challenges for feminist voice and activism.

Voicing Demands este o colectie de naratiuni analitice a ceea ce s-a intamplat cu vocea feminista, o cale cheie catre abilitarea femeilor. Aceste naratiuni se indeparteaza de dezbaterea existenta privind angajamentul politic al femeilor in institutiile formale pentru a examina activismul feminist pentru construirea si sustinerea circumscriptiilor electorale prin ridicarea, negocierea si legitimarea vocii femeilor in contexte diferite.
