ABSTRACT
The final section of this book is given over to young women who are selfidentified feminist activists. They have experienced life in a time that could be described as ‘post-women’s liberation’. They were born in or after the time when street activism by women’s organisations was at its height. As we noted at the beginning of the book, changes over the last four decades may require renegotiation of the identity of women’s movements. Feminist activism may now take forms that would be unrecognisable to their ‘foremothers’. So how do young feminists in Australia, Canada, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Scotland and the United States – conceive of their ‘movement’ and its relationship to the past? Academic and activist Sarah Maddison introduces the chapter, followed by Erica Lewis, Jackie Steele, Melanee Thomas, Seyama Noriko, Eun Sang Lee, Fleur Fitzsimons, Claire Duncanson, and Ingrid Hu Dahl.
