Review: Miscellaneous: Gendering World Politics

Drawing from key contributions in the field of new social movements, Isbester skilfully unveils the various factors that affected the development of the women's movement, the consequences of the divisions within it, and the many reasons for their successes and failures. The issue of the tension between a broad process of social transformation in this case a particular version of socialism and the position women are called to play in it occupies an important portion of the study. However, the treatment it receives is proof of the author's ability to avoid simplifications and to weave the analytical threads that make intelligible a complex and contradictory process. This is an excellent book that should be of interest to those concerned not only with women's role in political change but also to students of social movements and revolutionary processes.
