Reviews
"Making Feminist Politics is empirically rich and analytically nuanced. I do not know of another book with this breadth of focus. Ranging from the family to global governance and from internal politics in an international union to coalition-building at the World Social Forum, this is fascinating material."--Catherine Eschle, coauthor of Making Feminist Sense of the Global Justice Movement
"This is a book that has been needed for a long time. Rarely have I seen an analysis of women's roles in contemporary union organizing placed in an international context."--Nancy A. Naples, author of Feminism and Method: Ethnography, Discourse Analysis, and Activist Research
"A compelling hundred-plus year history of organizing by union women within and across unions and borders."--Labor Studies Journal
